Hey girl hey :)
Hope you are having a great week! I can't wait to see you this weekend for some skiiiing!!!
Earlier this week I was listening to a Christian radio station and heard an amazing story about an Olympic champion and brain tumor survivor Scott Hamilton... here is a video of his story:

What he says at 7 minutes and 19 seconds is unbelievable. He has many years of perspective... I can't wait until one day when we are a little bit older and are drinking coffee talking about life and you can honestly tell me that your brain tumor was the worst but best thing that ever happened to you. It may take a little bit of time but I can already see how it changed who you are, and who are entire family is- and for the better. Don't feel like you have to feel that way now, just some day I know you will be able to :)
You are Miracle Meagan!
Keep cruising girl! School, work.... I am so pumped and proud of you. See you FRIDAYYYYY!!!! You absolutely rock!!!!
XOXO,

You. Make. Me. Proud.
Dear Meagan,
The purpose of this blog is solely to congratulate you on the amazing progress you are making! Most of the time going to school and going to work is an incredible experience. You look forward to seeing work friends, and you love learning in your classes- so that makes these activities fun... On top of that they help you feel productive and like you are going somewhere and doing something positive with your time and your life. BUT sometimes getting to class and work is a struggle because you just don't wanna go. Those are the days you buck up and do it, and normally everything goes just fine and you end up being happy that you went and made something productive of your day :) Tonight I just want to tell you that I am SO proud of you because on the days that you don't want to go- you have been pushing through more than you EVER had before. Sure you may have missed one class or so (who hasn't?). But for the vast majority this is the best attended semester you have had since your surgeries. AND you are holding an awesome JOB on top of that without missing any shifts (MAKE THAT MONEY)!
What is amazing is that this is just the start. You learned so much from everything you went through and honestly so did our entirely family and others around us. You came up swinging and I am so excited that you did! Like I said, the best part is that this is only the beginning- the background work. Right now you are working towards your dream- keep picturing the day when you get to LIVE it :) As a PT assistant or German translator helping others around you! You really have gotten your groove back miss thing and there is something I need you to do for me... right now... raise your right hand... and pat yourself on the back ;) You deserve it! I can't wait to go up north with you in a couple weeks! Bellaire is not ready for these sisters to hit the town!
Love you girl... hope you are enjoying Juan Pablo tonight ;) Aye Aye Aye!
XOXO,
Brooke
