Dear Tyler,

Hi pumpkin! How are you doing on this Tuesday afternoon? Mom is doing pretty good today. Just settled into my office to write your letter. Mom and Meme have been gone all day since 10:30 am. We got home around 2 pm and Mom did a few things before coming upstairs to her office. The weather today is absolutely beautiful! It is sunny, warm and 80 degrees. Tomorrow is going to be even warmer. It will be giving us a quick preview of what is to come in the next couple months! 
 Meme and Mom got our nails done today. Meme chose a really pretty glitter that is blue/aqua green. It is called snow cone. Mom chose a bright hot pink and got a couple nails done with pink glitter. It is called Mango Cosmos. I love them and just in time for Valentines Day next Friday. That day is when Mom gets her hair done again. This time it will be a full highlight and I will be more blonde than brown. I can't wait! Mom will take a picture of myself and post it on here when I get it down. I need to update all the pictures on here anyways as it has been awhile. 
 After we got our nails done, we went to Walmart and picked out a few more plants for the front yard beside the house. Mark wanted more Ti Plants and I was excited to get them again. Now we have 6 total. I love the color of them and the name of them. Mom will post a picture on here tonight. They are pink. I think of you and believe that you are surrounding our home now from all directions with love and light. It is almost a sign for Mom to say that her Ty is always around and with me. I just love the whole concept of it. I hope it makes you smile as much as it does for Mom! 
 Mark is crazy busy with work today and is on the phone right now. Meme is relaxing in her room and as usual, Bob is just sitting outside. The pups are quiet now but I guess the whole time I was gone, they were not good for Mark at all. They barked a lot and gave Mark a huge headache. He is now not in a good mood to say the least. I am not sure what is going on with him lately. He hasn't been sleeping well and he has been having a lot of stomach issues. He is losing a lot of weight as well but you can't tell him that. If I had to guess I would say around 20 lbs since we moved her and that is not good. We have started to eat healthier but that doesn't seem to be helping him. Mom is back to eating very little bread, cheese and instead, I am eating a lot of veggies, fruits, yogurt, and fish. I feel good. All the walking up and down the stairs every day and taking the pups for their walks twice to 3 times a day is helping a lot. I can see the weight loss and I am in different clothing sizes. I am sure it will continue as the weather gets warmer I will not want to eat much at all. Mom does a lot of cooking in her Air Fryer. It is awesome. Wish they were out when you were here. It would have made making meals so much easier, faster and healthier. Mom misses so much when it comes to you. It is now going on 7 years without you and nothing has gotten easier. Sure I laugh and smile now these days at things but you are always on my mind. I miss your face, your hugs that you could give, your kisses on my cheek, your voice, Tyler... Mom just misses everything. I ask myself daily....will it ever get easier and my firm answer every time is NO! 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. 
 Mom has very little for updates for you today but I do have a couple. Debbie messaged Mom earlier today and told me that her and Grandpa were at the eye doctors this morning. It was taking longer than usual and she let me know that Grandpa has cataracts in both his eyes now and within a couple years he will have to have surgery. Something is going on with Debbie as well. She is not feeling well these days and is having stomach issues like Mark is. Mom was able to book flights for them in April. Instead of a month here they will be coming for 2 weeks. I will take it. One week we will be doing all kinds of fun things and the second week will be relaxing and showing them around the area. Mom is hoping that they will move here...not in the house but on their own. My fingers are crossed that they like it a lot to not want to leave. Help me out please...lol. Mom misses Grandpa like crazy too. Looks as if Meme will be closing on her house this Friday. It has been a long time coming but it will finally be over with. I am very happy for her and that stress will be gone. Mom will keep you posted on all these subjects. 
 I have to get going now though as it is after 5 pm and the pups need their dinner and food and Mom needs to get ours going. I will be back tomorrow with another one. I will light your candle and whisper to you later during the night. Smile for me and I will smile to you my sweet precious son. Have fun tonight while I sleep. Come visit Mom if you can. Thank you. Please continue to watch over us all. Fly high and free and thank you for being my bright shining star that guides me. I love you unconditionally, Tyler. Until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah!
