“I finally made it,” Morgan said with the large smile on her face.
Morgan Murray is a 23 year old girl with her entire life figured out. All of her childhood dreams have come true but it hasn’t always been this way, in fact it was a pretty rough road to success for her.
Let 's start at the beginning…
“And this is for you Morgan”, Morgan’s grandma said as she surrounded Morgan with the warmth of the blue and pink checkered blanket. This blanket, little did Morgan’s grandma know, would shape her into who she is today.
Morgan has always carried around her blanket which has been consider by her, her good luck charm. This blanket to her was as lucky as a four leaf clover or leprechauns or wishbones. They could solve all of her problems …show more content…
Most kids had this same dream but Morgan Murray was different. She didn’t just want this dream, she needed it. You could find her in a gym seven days a week working out. If she wasn’t at the gym, she was a the basketball working on her shot. She was determined to make her dreams come true. This determination most likely came from her family and friends.

“Sweetie, come watch the basketball game with me like old times,” Morgan’s mom said filled with hope.
Morgan agreed and said “okay”, kind of annoyed but she thought why not.

After a long and persuasive conversation, the college coach agreed to let her play next
