Dear Tyler,

 Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Wednesday afternoon? Mom is alright but once again, I am exhausted. The renters were up partying and yelling and screaming until after 12 midnight last night. Mom finally got to bed around 1 am and then was up a few more times. Finally I was awake at 6:45 am. I fed the pups and walked them, made breakfast for mark and I and then did a bit of cleaning. I came into my office to do a few things and then decided to make the bed and take my shower. I noticed that those renters are gone! Thank God for miracles! Mom will finally be able to get some rest. I am hoping the next few months will be on the quieter side. I know it will pick up during Christmas but that is okay. At least we have a couple months of down time to enjoy the pool again. 
 I wanted to write to you know because after I am done, Mom is going to turn her computer off and I will be curating some of my boxes...to get a head start. It is going to rain in a little bit so I thought hanging on the floor with Ozzy during that time won't be such a bad thing. Last night was a dud evening. Mark had a work call from 5-6:30 pm. Meme and Bob were upstairs in their rooms and Mom had dinner alone and then sat while it was quiet. It was kind of nice for a change. Tonight I am hoping that Mark doesn't have to work but if he does he does. Mom will have dinner and then watch some of her taped shows while cuddled up in bed with the pups. I need a "down" night as I am just so tired from the last 7 nights of lack of sleep. 
 Today is one of those days that has a lot of meaning for us. It is September 9th and it is Grandpa's Birthday! I am sure that you are around him all day and giving him signs to let him know! Mom wished him a happy day online but I will call him later to sing him Happy Birthday! It is 17 days out before I get to see him and I couldn't be more excited! I miss him so much. I haven't gone a year without seeing him in over 5 years. It is too long for me. I wish that things worked out differently with Grandpa and Debbie. I wished they moved down here. I am still hoping there is that chance though! Help me out, T! Today is also a big day... it is 1 year that Mark and Mom purchase this house. Already a year has gone by. We moved here on October 15th though. Still it just goes to show that time is moving quickly here. 
 Not much else for updates I am afraid. Things are somewhat quiet right now which is a good thing. Aunt Beck hasn't called lately but I know she is hurt and upset. I don't blame her at all. I haven't spoken to hardly anyone. No one bothers to call me anymore. I tried reaching out to Aunt Donna to see how Ron was doing but nothing. I touch base with a few people but I always have to be the one to reach out first and that is getting old again. It makes me sad at times so I don't think about it too often. The ones that are meant to be in my life are and I am making new friends now. That is a good feeling! I will update you when I have some new news to share.
 I will be lighting a candle for you after this letter is finished. The clouds are rolling in and it is going to start raining here soon. I think it said from 3 pm until 9 pm. today and tomorrow. I will light another candle for you later as well. Mom will whisper to you later tonight after I am in bed. Smile to me and I will smile to you. Have fun while I am sleeping tonight. Come visit me in my dreams if you can. Thank you. Please continue to watch over us all. Keep us healthy, safe and blessed. Thank you so much. Mom misses you like crazy. More than words can say. 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 in my heart, mind, body and soul. Continue to fly high and free like I know you are doing. I also know you are learning and doing many of great things. I am still so proud of you, pumpkin! 
 Mom needs to get going. It is going on 2:30 pm and I have a couple hours before the night routine stuff starts. I will be back tomorrow with another letter to you. Until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 💖
