Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Monday afternoon? It is already after 3 pm. I would like to say that this day went by fast but it has not at all. It really has dragged on. Mom was up at 7 am. The pups were fed, walked and the fresh coffee was made. Mom relaxed downstairs for a bit and then decided to start the day by scrubbing and cleaning the bathroom toilets, tubs and showers. I got ready, took a shower and then grabbed an early lunch. Mark was already fast at work and Bob was sleeping. Meme was knitting and just relaxing. Mom has been in her office all day long. I was able to accomplished a couple phone calls, text messages, emails and then worked on rewriting everything in a new notebook for my business. This way I can read everything and it is all in one place! I have been wanting to do that for a couple weeks now and it is finally finished! Mom is the type who is always organized and detailed-oriented. It drives me crazy when things are out of whack. I think I get that from caring for you all those years that I did. I am happy to be this way and love it. Some say it is OCD but I don't care. I am neat and clean. Everything has a place and if it doesn't I don't need it! 
 Mom got a sweet text today saying that all the things that I donating to the family who had the fire were so thankful and appreciated everything. They wanted to make sure that I knew that and that they were saying prayers for us. That warmed my heart. I was so happy to help and I don't miss anything that I gave away. If they needed more I would help again! Mom has always been a giver! I love that feeling of helping others. It is just in my nature. It makes me smile.
 It is the 3 week of lockdown. Not too much to smile about as the days get longer and all mixed together. Everything is still not open. We now have to wear masks when we go out in public. I saw that in China, they are back to being in lockdown and the Coronavirus has hit a second wave over there. It is so sad and depressing. My heart is with them and my prayers too. So much sadness in this world. So many precious memories are being missed out on. Mom is very thankful and blessed that we are all safe and healthy here. We are doing what we are told to do and staying out of the public's eye as much as possible. Bob hasn't been anywhere for over a month, Mark has been out once, Mom has been out 3 times in a month and Meme...well she has been out the most. She doesn't know how to stay home...ugh! She is getting better though. Mom has heard that we will be in lockdown now until the middle of May...around my birthday but someone said it could be in June now. Oh boy! Mom still thinks that the suicidal rate is going to climb soon if things don't get better. Divorce rates will be high too. We, as humans, are not used to isolation with everyone for this amount of time. People are starting to go crazy. It is a very scary world out there right now. We are doing alright here. We give everyone the space that is needed. That is helpful. I know you are with us and around us. I know that you are making sure we are healthy and safe and for that I am thankful. Please continue to watch over us my sweet precious son.
 Yesterday of course was Easter. Things were an ordinary day here. Everyone did their own thing. Mark and Mom were in the pool for like 4 hours. I am so sore today and I got a pretty good sun burn again. My face got it really bad. It is sore but I am doing good. I am staying hydrated and all. Mark got a sun burn too. I think his might be worse though. We had dinner with Meme and Bob last night and then after the dishes were done, we played poker. That was fun. We laughed a lot. It was nice to do that and forget everything that we are all facing every day and then added things as well. we called it a night at 8:30 pm. Mom was asleep by 10 pm. I think tonight will be an early night as I am tired already and like I said sore. we will be having an early dinner and then Mark and Mom are going to go swimming for a bit. It is 97 degrees out there today. A night swim will be good. The sun will be down a bit and not so hot. After that it will be drying off and then a bit of tv before going to bed. Mark has busy days ahead of him trying to find work. He is lining up calls and skype sessions with folks. Moms fingers are crossed and prayers are being said that he finds work quickly. He is smart and I don't think he will have a problem at all. Please help him out if you can. Thanks pumpkin.
 Mom has a candle lit for you and it has been burning all day. I will burn another one later tonight if I get the chance. I will whisper to you before bed tonight so smile for me and I will smile to you. I hope you have fun while I am getting some sleep. Fly high and free. I will be back tomorrow with another letter to you. Always know that I miss and 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. Until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams later. For now Mom is going to relax a bit before the night routine has to start. 
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah ❤
