Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Friday morning? Mom is running very late and everyone will be here in about 10 minutes so I apologize that this letter to you will be very short today. Mom was up at 7 am and was able to do all the things that I needed. I did laundry, folded it and put it away, vacuumed the floors, mopped the floors, clean both bathrooms, made 2 pots of coffee already and now I am writing to you! The weather today is crappy. It has been raining steady and heavy at times all last night and through the morning. I think it is suppose to stop later in the day and the sun will come out just in time for it to set tonight. Tomorrow will be an excellent weather day to drive to Connecticut. The sun will be shining and the temps will be in the low 70's. Couldn't ask for a better day. Mom will have all kinds of stories to share with you on Sunday's letter! I sure hope that luck will be on one of our sides and we could have a miracle and win big or at least win something... large sum of money. either way, I know that we are looking forward to the adventure out and a fun time. I know that you will be with us all so send a sign or two if you can! Thanks!
 Last night was quiet. Mark did work on his computer when he got home from work and Mom watched TV until he was finished. we later watched a couple shows and then Mom went to bed. Mark, however, did not go to bed until 1 am. I am sure he is tired but the goal is for everyone to go to bed early so we can leave here by 8 am. We shall see how that goes and how close we get to that...lol.
 Mom has the candle burning for you already. It was dark in here earlier so I decided to light it plus it smells really good. Not sure what we will be doing today but we have a lot of talking to do with everyone. We all need to be on the same page when it comes to a few things. Later tonight we are grilling outside and then playing a bit of poker...then bed! Mom will whisper to you later this evening so smile when you hear me and I will smile to you too. 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 live inside my heart, mind, body and soul. Please watch over us all. It means so much to us. Thank you. Come visit Mom in my dreams tonight if you can. Have fun while we are all sleeping. Mom needs to get going because they should be pulling in any minute now and I don't want to be rude. I will be back on Sunday with another letter to you. Until then....good night and sweet dreams pumpkin.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Here is the prayer for the day:

 TODAY, MAY 17, 2019

Let us, then, hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we have a great High Priest who has gone into the very presence of God - Jesus, the Son of God. Our High Priest is not one who cannot feel sympathy for our weaknesses. On the contrary, we have a High Priest who was tempted in every way that we are, but did not sin. Hebrews 4:14-15, TEV

Dear Father in heaven, we look to Jesus Christ, who is at your right hand, through whom you have promised help for the whole world. Unite us with him so that we may receive authority to help all people according to your will. May your name be kept holy among us, for your children have every reason to rejoice in the Savior you have given them. We thank you for everything you have shown to those who believe in you. We pray to you, hasten the time when your day shall come with glory, the day when you will give the glory to Jesus Christ, when he will reign and triumph over all evil and bring the peace you have always wanted to give the world. We wait and long for this. Amen.
