Dear Tyler, 

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Sunday late afternoon? It is going on 4:45 pm here and today has been a day that I knew would suck. It is May 10th and it is Mother's Day. Mom woke up at her usual time at 7 am this morning. I fed the pups, took them for a walk and then made coffee for everyone. I relaxed for about 30 minutes and then I made the bed and took my shower and got ready. Mom took Meme back to Walmart to get the stuff she needed. We didn't get home until maybe 12:15 or so. Mom put everything away and tgen started on a late brunch for everyone. Mom made french toast, bacon and sausage. We ate around 1 pm. Mom did the clean up and then decided to just go sit by the pool to relax. I listened to music dipped my feet in the water. Couldn't go in though because we just had put shock and chlorine in it. When you do that you have to give it about 24 hours to do its job before anyone can go in. I sat outside for about an hour before it was time to give Ozzy his medicine. I came upstairs so that he could relax for a little while but he has done nothing of the sort. Mom is writing to you on her cell phone and rocking in my glider chair while listening to some meditation music. Meme is doing laundry, Bob is sitting downstairs and I don't know where Mark is. Not to sure what is going on with him today. He didn't say anything to me this morning, been really cold to me all day. He went outside when I was by the pool and he said not two words to me. He knows that today is a tough day for me and he usually is quite nice to me. He buys me a nice card, flowers and this year nothing. Not even a Happy Mother's Day. I know I am not his Mom but still. I know that it is hard for him as well as he lost his Mom when he was 17 years old. He doesn't think about it anymore he says because its been so long. I find that very hard to believe. No one ever forgets. Again, I am not sure why he is treating me this way....again! It hurts that he didn't acknowledge it today but what hurts more is that he doesn't even give it a second thought to how it hurts my feelings. I am finding that every day that goes by he comes caring less and less about me. Honestly the only time Mark is happy is when he is away from me, Meme and Bob and when he is talking to his brothers and their wife and girlfriend. He laughs and sincerely is enjoying himself. They play that stupid video game all the time. He played last night for almost 3 hours while Mom sat and watched TV alone in the bedroom. When he gets off the computer and phone with them his personality completely changes and goes back to being silent and not talking. I see this behavior of his more and more since we moved here. It sucks. I have told him that but again, he could care less. Mom is really tired of this kind of treatment. I am not a perfect person and never have claimed to be at all. I make so many mistakes all the time but I don't deserve to be treated this way at all. 
 Aunt Beck called today. That was nice. I didn't make any calls at all. I stayed off social media as well for the most part too. Just not a day for Mom to go on it. 
 Everything is opened up here where we are starting tomorrow. Hair and nail salons open up as well. Mom is going tomorrow for her nails and maybe later in the month for her hair. The place where I go has few people there at one time so I am not worried at all. I know you are with me and keeping me safe at all times through this pandemic and always. Thank you my sweet precious son. 
 Mom will whisper to you later tonight before I go to bed. Smile for me and I will smile to you. I will light a candle as well while I watch a movie so know it is burning bright for you. I promised Meme that I would watch one with her. I made dinner for everyone too tonight. I did a lot and didn't relax for myself. That is ok. I will later on after this movie. It is going on 7 pm. Mom needs to get with everyone. They are waiting for me. I will bevback tomorrow afternoon with another letter. Please watch over us and continue to flybhigh and free. I miss you so much and 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. Until tomorrow comes... good night and sweet dreams. 
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 🤍
