Dear Tyler,

Hi pumpkin! How are you doing on this Monday afternoon? Mom is done for the day on studying because of the weather we are having. I am not sure it we keep getting surges or not but my computer has shut down on me 3 times today. Guess that would be a sign for me to stop for the day and just resume things again tomorrow. The weather channel was certainly correct on the weather that we are getting today. It started around 9 am this morning and the winds are now at 40 mph with gusts over 60 mph. The trees are just bending. Mom tried to do a video earlier but when I was standing next to the window the wind was so intense that it was shaking the windows and it felt like the windows were going to be pulled from off the side of the building. When I was studying earlier the wind would be whipping and I could feel the entire building move and sway. We are on the 3rd floor. It is crazy. We have about another 4 hours of the strong winds before they will go down to maybe 24 mph. Please keep us safe here at the apartment and also for Mark while he will be on the road soon. He has a very long drive ahead of him and will be driving in it all the way back. Thank you my sweet precious son. 
 Mom was in the middle of looking over her exam when the computer shut down the first time. I saved my work though. I was then again going over it and had pushed the button to save without submitting because I wanted to still check a few things and the computer shut down for the 2nd time on me and that time I was not so lucky. It submitted my exam to be graded. I ended up with a 72 on it. I was not happy but at least I passed the dang thing. My  overall grade dropped but I am still at a 89 so I am okay with that. I am 1 point from an A. I will be working on the final exam tomorrow. Hopefully I will get a good grade on that but it looks pretty tough. be with Mom through it all so that I get a passing grade. Thank you pumpkin. After this final I will be on my last course. I am hoping to finish it by the end of the week. I am hoping for that so bad! We shall see. My last course is Law and Ethics and it is all essay questions so it will take a bit. I got this though. Mom will keep you posted about it all. Not much else is going on. I literally have not spoken to Grandpa  or anyone in about a week to a month. No one is calling and I am not calling them either. Things here need a lot of work still so I am putting my focus on that right now. Mark has a crazy work schedule ahead of him for the month of March and then the first part of April he will be gone for several days as well. Lots to think about during all that time. Mom will be sure to keep you updated when I know of things though. 
 I sure hope that your evening will be all that you need and want it to be. I hope that you will have time to come visit me in my dreams or sit beside me while I sleep. I will light the candle for you in a little bit and Mom will whisper to you later this evening. Smile when you hear me and I will smile to you. I know this letter is short today but I want to make sure that I get one down incase my computer shuts down on me again. I will write more to you tomorrow though. I miss you like crazy and I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are my hero and the wind beneath my winds. Forever you are in my heart, mind, body and soul. Until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams later this evening. Keep lighting the path for Mom too. 
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Here is the prayer for the day:

“Here is my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen one in whom I delight; I will put my Spirit on him, and he will bring justice to the nations.” Isaiah 42:1, NIV
Dear Father in heaven, grant that we may stand in your grace. Grant that the light of your grace may come to us through your Word. Keep us firm in faith until the promised time when your redemption shall come to all the nations on earth. We are often anxious and ask ourselves if people can bear it. Will they learn to listen to your Word? Will they remain steadfast when hard times come? Will they turn to you alone, to you who know the hour and appoint the time when we may see the promised day? Let the might of your hand prevail over the whole world. You are the only power that can help us out of our great affliction, you our only Lord. Amen.
