Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Saturday afternoon? Mom is doing well today! I was able to get a good nights rest and woke up at 7 am. Mark and Mom went downstairs and fed the pups and then out the door they went for their walk. Mom relaxed for about an hour and then I made breakfast for us and did the clean up. Came upstairs after, did a load of laundry, made the bed, put a few things away that I needed to in my office and then got my swimsuit on and headed out to the pool. The water was 76 degrees. It was chilly at first but after that it was beautiful. Mom swam for a long time. It must have been over 1.5 hours. It was a lot of fun. Meme and Mark were in the pool as well but Bob did not want to get in it. That was weird. we asked but he kept saying no so we stopped. We all got out of the pool, laid in the sun for about 2 hours and had drinks and snacks. Bob actually went inside and played his video game upstairs. Meme went in about 20 minutes later and Mark and Mom stayed out there. We were listening to music and just having a good day. No everyone is kind of doing their own thing. Mark is playing a video game, Meme is knitting and Mom is writing to you while I have the chance. It is 3:40 pm and after this it will be time to prep dinner and get things going. We all decided that after we eat and take the pups for a long walk, instead of just going to our bedrooms for the night, we will play a couple of games before hand. It should be fun. Tomorrow is going to be like today. Get up, eat breakfast, swim, sit in the sun all day and then have dinner and relax for the night. I think we will have a family movie night though. we are going to try to do things on the weekend with Meme and Bob because during the week we just don't have the time where Mark is working and Mom is super busy as well. It will be a nice break for us all and it will give everyone something to look forward to. We are all now under quarantine. Go out when needed and nothing after that. It is safe this way. More and more people are being effected by this virus. All public stores, hair salons, nail salons, ice cream places, etc... are shut down. Grocery stores, gas stations and Walmart are open. That is it. People are losing money like crazy. Some people say we are going into a great depression. Mom doesn't know what to think right now. It is nuts. We are just trying to stay as safe as we can. I know you are watching over us so that is a huge help. Thank you my sweet precious son. It means a lot to Mom.
 Grandpa called last night. All is well there. Him and Debbie are fine. They have been going out when needed as well. No shopping for them either like they are used to. I think everyone is getting cabin fever. We are not used to being forced to stay home like this. We are used to doing what we want and when we want. I think this is the time to slow down, enjoying things before the madness starts again soon. Most places are closed for another 2 weeks. After that they will access the situation. I told Grandpa I would call him Sunday night. Haven't heard from anyone else though. I guess they are all okay. At least I am assuming so. Mom woke up to the news that the legendary country singer, Kenny Rogers passed away last night at age 81 years old. That is an icon for all of us. Mom listened to him growing up and still do. May he rest in peace for eternal life now. He will be missed. Not much us for news here, pumpkin. Mom will update you on things as I know of them. 
 I will light a candle later this evening when we are watching TV in bed. I will be sure to whisper to you before I fall asleep tonight. Smile for Mom and I will smile to you. I hope that you have fun during the evening and over night while Mom is sleeping. Come visit me in my dreams if you can. Thank you. I will be back tomorrow afternoon with another letter to you. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are and always will be my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you live inside my heart, mind, body and soul. It is going on 4 pm now and you know what that means.... time to prep dinner and get the night routine started. Today went by so fast! Until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams later. I miss you, Tyler, my bright and shining star.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah ❤
