1. I GOT MY BRACES OFF. I am so excited. I am now the proud owner of a retainer. Still trying to get use to it, but I am happy with my new smile. 2. I praise God that he is in control of everything, and I know I can trust in his leading. 3. I am thankful my parents are having a blast in Durango Colorado. They are enjoying themselves, and enjoying the cool weather. 4. I am so excited that this time next week I will be in Phoenix loving on my niece and visiting family. 5. I praise God that no matter if we mess up big time, the Lord is there to forgive. I pray you have a wonderful Thursday. For more Thankful Thrusdays, head on over to Sting My Heart.
