Dear Tyler,

Hi pumpkin! How are you doing on this Sunday afternoon? Mom is doing well today. we all got a good night sleep. Got up at 6:30 am and laid in bed until 7 am. Went downstairs and fed the pups, walked them and then sat for a bit chatting with Meme and Bob. Yup...Bob was downstairs before us this morning. He still is not sleeping at all. mark went upstairs to start watching his videos for his class this week, meme and Bob left to go shopping and Mom cleaned out the refrigerator, freezer, washed it all down, gathered all the trash, came upstairs and gathered the trash, put all kinds of thigs away and was done by 10 am. Mark and Mom went in the pool from 10:15 am until 12:30 pm, had some lunch and then went back in the pool from 1:15 pm until 2:45 pm. It was a super warm and nice day to be out there. Both Mark and I got a bit of sun and sunburn but that is okay. We stayed very hydrated! It is now 3:42 pm and Mark is finishing up his last 2 videos for his class, Meme is in her room, Bob is on the computer and Mom is writing to you. It has been a full weekend but I good one! Things are finally going well with Mark and I. We are trying very hard and that is helping a lot. We are enjoying our time together, staying off the electronics after 5 pm and communicating a lot better too. It sure is nice after a lot of fighting. If we can keep this up then we have a good chance but if not then we both know the outcome of things. We are trying to let little things go when it comes to Meme and Bob as well. Mom will admit it is easier for Mark then me though. Meme is just not a happy person at all lately. She is stressed out, not sleeping, has had a headache for several days straight now and she is also gaining a lot of weight. I have tried talking to her about it but she doesn't want to hear it so I stopped. Mom is a bit...well a lot disappointed in one thing since all this fighting started, Mark's job, etc... There was ample opportunity for her and Bob to both say that they would contribute to the bills and pay us something for living here or at least follow through with the agreement that we had before moving but neither of them said nothing. They had a few times and a few days to say it but still nothing at all. That is hurtful to Mark. He mentioned that he felt like a bank account to everyone and I don't blame him. It is true and it shouldn't be that way at all. I think Mom is going to have to have a conversation with Meme and Bob. They will have to either pay us to live here or they will have to pay somewhere else to live. They can't keep doing this to Mark. It is not right or fair to him. They can't keep taking advantage of things here in this house and live here for free. Mom will keep you updated on that!
 Tonight will be an evening of having dinner, cleaning up, walking the pups and then it will be a movie for us and then bed. Mark is in class all this week from 8 am until 8 pm. Long days for him but he has this. This is something that he has wanted for 4 years now! I am happy for him. This week will be busy for Mom too. I will be putting the finishing touches on my box business and then I will be also starting my class finally! I am excited. Meme and Bob have a busy week as well. They have doctor appointments, phone calls with doctors and then hair appointments at the end of the week. It will be busy busy busy for us all. Mom will also take the time to catch up with Grandpa, Aunt Beck and a few friends as well. 
 Not much else is going on. I just checked in on Meme because I thought she was snoring but it was Bob. She was saying that she was not feeling well. Sick to her stomach, still has that headache. She looks pale too. I told her to go get something to eat and then call it a night....an early night. She needs sleep. She wouldn't even come outside today while we were at the pool. Bob did for a bit but maybe just for 30 minutes and then went inside as he said it was too hot to be out there. I think the movie will be just Mark and Mom tonight instead of all of us. That is okay. Today is June 14th.... it is the day that Mark and I started going out 8 years ago. Can you believe that? 8 years ago.... sometimes it seems less than that and other times it seems longer...lol. We went out yesterday and then today spent all day together. Later we will have a drink to celebrate and I bet we both will be in bed by 9 pm. We will be exhausted from the day in the pool...lol. Mark was asleep at 8:30 pm last night. Mom fell asleep at 9:30 pm. It is tough to get old....lol. 
 This week will also be rough for Mom. You know why. I am sure that you will make yourself known for me with all kinds of signs. Thank you my sweet precious son. I miss you beyond anything. You were my world. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are the wind beneath my wings and my forever hero. You live in my heart, my mind, my body and my soul. You will always be a huge part of me. Mom will light your candle this evening and I will whisper to you before I fall asleep tonight. Smile to me when you hear Mom and I will smile back. I will write to you again tomorrow afternoon. Have fun while I sleep. Come visit me in my dreams if you can. Thanks pumpkin. Mom is going to get going for now as it will be time to get the night routine started in about 30 minutes. Until tomorrow comes.....good night and sweet dreams later.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah ❤
