No idea, but I just wanted to point out that the proper grammar is "Every day" in that type of usage.
"Everyday" is an adjective, and "every day" is an adjective plus a noun. The former means like... normal/common, things like that. The latter, which is what you meant, means "each day."
I had to make the difference very clear when getting my memorial tattoo for Mikey, because "Missing you... every day" is VASTLY different than "Missing you gets easier everyday," which would actually not even make sense at all in the context of the entire sentence. Missing you gets easier... normal? Commonplace? Whaaaa?
