Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Tuesday afternoon? Mom is writing to you earlier than usual because the weather is pretty nasty. We are having heavy rain but storms mixed in as well. Mom has already lost the internet once so I wanted to get your letter written just in case it goes out again.
Mom was up at 5:45 am this morning and the pups would not let me go back to sleep so I have been up since then. I fed them and made coffee for Mark and got him his snacks so that he was all set for the drive to the customer site again today. Day 2 out of 8. He said he did good yesterday but her was very tired and after PT he was really beat. He stayed awake until 10 pm and then he was out like a light. Mom is proud of him. I know he is more tried and in pain more than he is telling me or admitting but I am not stupid.... I see right through it but say nothing at all. Mom is learning not to say much and not to pick a fight. It is better for the both of us this way.
Last night was going to be quiet but we watched TV for a little bit and then we had a call after 8 pm that lasted until 9 pm or later. Mark and I were going over some reports that were done and we were looking at the summaries with the expert on these. There was good news and not so good news but all will be okay. We have faith in this whole thing and we will remain positive. Mom is playing the middle man as when things are going on I tell Mark if he is not home and then I keep Meme and Grandpa up to date on everything as well. I look to them for advice seeings how they have done this a few times and we have not. It is stressful but Mom is not letting it get to me at all. With being this way I know that I have changed quite a bit and for the better. In the past this would have stressed me out to no end and I would have been a wreck. Mom would like to believe that you are proud of me. I hope you are smiling down on Mom. I think tonight will be a repeat of last night for us. Mark will get home late, we will have dinner and then Mom will do the clean up and we will be having another call around 8 pm. We will go to bed around 10 pm and try to get some rest so that Mark can get up early again in the morning and Mom can get things together for myself. I have tried so hard the last couple of days to start the studying back up but I have failed. There have way too much for Mom to do during the day with added phone calls that by the time I can get to studying, I am exhausted from getting up early and I just go and relax for a bit before it is time to make dinner and feed the pups. Mom's eyes are heavy right now. It is pouring rain and I am going to finish your letter and call it a day. I will be shutting my computer off and going to the couch to relax for a bit before Mark gets home.
Mom has no updates for you today...maybe tomorrow though. I will light your candle in a bit, I will whisper to you later this evening as well so be listening out for my voice. Smile to me when you hear it and I will smile to you my sweet precious son. I miss you so much and I love you with all my heart. 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. Have fun tonight while Mom sleeps. Come visit me in my dreams if you can. For now, Mom is going to get going and go relax. I will be back tomorrow with another letter to you so until then.... good night and sweet dreams.
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
Here is today's prayer:
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13, NIV
Lord our God, grant us courageous hearts, we pray. Grant that we may always find our strength and support in you and may bear with joy whatever the present days bring us. No matter how much evil occurs, we know that your peace is already prepared. We await your peace, and we are allowed to believe that everything will turn out according to your will and according to the good you have prepared for your people on earth. For in faith your people overcome the world, and at last through their faith others too may receive something from you and may lift their eyes to you, the God of truth, of justice, of salvation, and of peace. Be with us every day, Lord God. Help us. Bless us, and bless all who try to bring help where it is needed. Let us praise your name forevermore! Amen.
