Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Saturday evening? This day has just flown right by that is for sure. Mom, as you know did not write to you yesterday because I never got out of bed per say...only to get something to eat and use the bathroom. Mom was so tired from 2 nights straight of not getting sleep that I needed a day where I did absolutely nothing at all. I watched TV all day long while Mark played his video game with his brother. The weather was very warm as well so it was a nice day to take. Mom misses it when I don't write to you but really I just needed this day to myself. I think Mom is just so tired from everyone lighting off fireworks for freakin 6-7 hours straight. They have been starting at 8 pm and going until 2-3 am. Last night they did fireworks from 8 pm to 10 pm. I am just so sick of it. Add on the other stresses going on in my life as well and Mom just needs a break. I thought of you all day long and I mentioned your name several times. You are always on my mind. I miss you so much and I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. I love you more than all the stars in the sky. You are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you live inside my heart, mind, body and soul. 

 You can see on here that for some reason I noticed that my letter to you on July 4th never posted so I posted it on here today as well. The pictures came up but not the letter. Not sure what happened there but it is all good. This morning Mom was up at 7 am. I didn't even lounged in bed at all. I got up, fed the pups, Mark got ready, Mom cleaned the bathrooms, vacuumed the floors, dusted and then got ready. Grandpa and Debbie came down for a quick visit today. It was so nice to see them. They got here around 10:30 am and they left at 1:45 pm. Grandpa needed to be home because he had to do something for 5 pm. The time went by all so fast and I miss them already. We are planning on going to NH for a visit coming up in September for a weekend. Then if all goes well and in our favor, we will be relocating the middle of October. That will be a very long 6 months of not seeing Grandpa and Debbie. Skype will be our best friend for those 6 months. Hopefully they will be able to come for a visit sometime inbetween those 6 months. We are hoping it will be during the holidays so that we can all be together. We shall see though. They called Mom to let me know that they made it home safely. Grandpa is on his way to Church and Debbie is relaxing now. Meme called a couple times today. Everything is good there. The weather is crappy in NH though. Rain/thunder/lightning. We are going to get something here as well. It is starting to get pretty dark. The clouds are rolling in fast and it looks like rain. It is really eerie but cool right now. Weather channel is saying dangerous storms are possible here. That is not good. High winds and hail could be a part of it too. Mom is not going to stay on the computer much longer because of this. I will be needing to feed the pups and then get dinner for us as it is 5:15 pm. Mom can hear the thunder rolling now. I love these kinds of storms but the pups are so afraid. Glad they are earlier in the day and not through the night. Mom needs some serious good sleep tonight with no fireworks, shaking pups or Mark snoring! 

 Your candle has been lit all morning and will continue until I go to bed tonight. I sure hope you have fun while everyone is sleeping. Hope you get to do all the things you need to do and want to do tonight. I will be back tomorrow with another letter to you. Come visit Mom in my dreams tonight. I would love that. Mom is going to close this letter because it just got very very dark and the storm will be happening any minute. It looks nasty. The pups can feel it and they are restless. I love you my sweet precious son. Until tomorrow comes.... good night and sweet dreams.

 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!

Here is the prayer for the day:

 TODAY, JULY 06, 2019

For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. Romans 8:14–15a, NIV

Dear Father in heaven, open our hearts to the wonder of being able to call you Father, the wonder of being united with you. You are the source of all life and strength. In you is redemption, and we need to be redeemed before we can live rightly. Take from us the pressures forced on us by the flood of events. Make us completely free as people led by your hand, people who may be joyful because everything will be overcome through the power you grant us in Jesus Christ. Protect us from fear and from all evil. Show more and more clearly your good and wonderful goal for all people on earth, so that in expectation they may find happiness even in all the stress of today. Amen.
