Letter #14

Dear Tyler;

I don’t know why, but I am feeling really emotional tonight and I keep thinking about you.  I don’t know what is going on and the only thing I can do to try to deal with my feelings is to write you a letter.

I am very thankful that not only did we see you at Brexton’s birthday party, but we also saw you one week later on Easter—twice in eight days!

You don’t know how much it filled my heart to see you smile and laugh.   I enjoyed hearing you tell funny stories about your job.   

When we had to leave after the Easter fun was over, you got up from the couch and came to me and voluntarily gave me a hug without me even asking for one, I thought, “Wow, we are making progress and it feels a little bit like my son is coming back.”

I just wanted to tell you that it meant a lot to me to be around you.  The good times do a lot to help me feel like we might be able to have healing between us.  They also make me continue to miss you just as much as ever.

Stay well, safe, and happy.

Love,

Mom
