Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Friday afternoon? I hope where you are it is bright and the sun is shining. Today the weather is gray, cloudy and we are getting heavy rain and wind but there is no complaining at all from me because some folks are going to be getting snow. Mom does not want that all. No more until next winter.... 8 or9 months down the road! 
 Today has been a very lazy day for Mom. I slept in for a change, made a nice breakfast and lounged around all afternoon. I read emails and such too but that is it. I think Mom needed a day to just do absolutely nothing and today just seemed like the right time. Tomorrow is Saturday and I need to be more productive of everything. Errands need to be run, garbage needs to be done, grocery shopping and a few other things as well. Mom also has to go get packages at the office and get our fabs reprogrammed. Sounds like a bit but Mom can get it done in a short amount of time. The weather is supposed to be crappy tomorrow as well but Sunday looks to be sunny! 
 Last night Mom really thought it would be a very quiet night considering everything that is going on but it was the complete opposite. Mark and Mom sat down and talked again and it was actually descent and nice. We know we want to be together but we just don’t know how to get over this hurdle that we are facing right now. We also know that it is going to take time and both of us need to work at it. He is off to Texas in 2 weeks for 10 days and Mom can’t go so I will be staying behind. I am bummed because I would love to go to Texas again but I do understand. I think that I need to just deal. I will be just fine. Lonely but fine. I have school to keep me busy during the days and night time I will snuggle with the pups. I may even go to NH for a few days to visit depending on the weather. Mom will keep you posted with that. The phones were quiet again last night. No one called so I will call everyone over the weekend to check in. I will call Aunt Beck next week to say hello and catch up on things. I know she is away tomorrow for work. Bean starts her new job on the 25th. I think that is Monday. I hope she likes it. Mom is happy and excited for her. Maybe I will call her after a couple days to see how she likes it. Mom will update you on things when I know of them. 
 Right now it is quiet. The time is 2:50 pm. Mark is working and the pups are sleeping. Mom is writing to you from the couch. I never turned my computer on at all today. It felt good to! In a little while Mom will be starting dinner. We are having baked potatoes, bbq chicken and a veggie. It will take some time to prep but that is okay. Later tonight will be relaxing. Mom wants to take a bubble bath and watch some TV before bed. Like I said a very lazy day! Mom will light the candle for you in a little bit. A new one was started last night. I will whisper to you later tonight so smile when you hear me and I will smile back to you. I hope that your evening will be everything that you need and want it to be. Come visit me in my dreams tonight if you can or sit next to me for a bit so I can fall asleep. Thank you my sweet precious son. I miss you so much 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 wings. Forever you will live inside my heart, mind, body and soul. Mom will be back tomorrow with another letter to you. For now it is time to prep for dinner. Please continue to watch over us all and also continue to light my path. You are my bright shining star 🌟 Until tomorrow comes.... good night and sweet dreams later. 
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 🖤
