Dear Tyler, 

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Thursday evening? It is thec2nd day of the New Year and Mom has been very busy all day today. I am writing to you on my phone because I never went into my office at all today. Mom woke up at 7:15am and came down stairs to fed the pups. Meme and Bob left for a doctors appointment while Mark went to work. I sat down for not even 15 minutes looking at emails and got up and started to prep and make homemade beef stew for dinner tonight. I cleaned up my dishes, made some hot chocolate and then started taking down the Christmas decorations. Mom cleaned everything as I went along and also dusted too. I finished up with taking down the 4 trees, putting everything away, rearranging things, vacuumed the floors, putting everything in the garage again and Mom finished up at 3:30 pm. It took me 6 hours to do everything. I just got done making the bed upstairs and then shopping in the shower to just get cleaned up as I was covered in dust, glitter, and fake snow..... it is after 5 pm and Mark is on his last call of the day, Meme is being bitchy at something neither Bob or I did but we are being blamed for it and the pups are quiet. Mom wanted to write to you now because after this will be dinner and then Mom is going to relax because my back is sore from doing everything today. It will be an early night for us but tomorrow is Friday and then it's the weekend again. Next week Mom is buckling down and getting her stuff together because I am going to work hard on finishing up my classes and taking my final exam. I need to get that done. Tomorrow Meme and Mom will go get our hair done. Meme is getting a cut and Mom is getting a highlight. It's been almost 6 years since I had it professional done. Mom usually just does it herself. We shall see how it goes tomorrow. Eventually I want to get a new haircut and style but little at as time though. Mom will fill you in on tomorrow's letter to you. We should be home around 2 pm. 
 Mom called Grandpa last night but he was chatting with Johnny so I didn't get a chance to say hello. I spoke to Debbie though b ett briefly. I will try him again tonight. Johnny texted me and we chatted for a bit as well. After that, Mom took a bath and then crawled into bed as I was so tired from not getting any sleep the night before. I slept well last night and only woke up a couple times, however, Mom had a nightmare that really scared her. It was one of the dreams I have periodically. I asked the Angel's yo help me out with it and also you too. Did you hear, Mom? I hope so! I will whisper to you later on this evening as well. Smile for Mom and I will smile to you. The candle has been burning all day long for you. I decided to light it while I was doing everything today. Hope you are seeing it burn brightly for you. 
 Mom needs to get going for now as dinner is already done. It is going on 6 pm. Then it will be cleaning dishes and relaxing for the rest of the night before bedtime. I miss you so much and I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. Always know that you are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you live inside my heart,mind,body and soul. Mom will be back tomorrow with another letter to you. Thank you for being my bright shining star that lights the way for me. Have fun tonight while Mom is sleeping. Come visit me in my dreams if you can. Thanks pumpkin. Until tomorrow comes....good night and sweet dreams. 
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 🖤
