Brooke, has it been ages or what! But it's good to hear from you and thank you for taking the time to write a birthday post for me, especially one with such details. You threw in many encouraging words for me, along with numerous memories from the TLI summer which lets me know your memory is definitely better than mine. Must be the kids who took my brain away :) Anyway, you are a fun person that I am so thankful to have gotten to spend that summer with, as well as other days at Clemson. And I always will have to credit you with making the number 47 haunt me and TJ! Love, Ginger
