Thankful Thursday ~ A Perfect Day

“I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart,
and I will glorify your name forever.”
~ Psalm 86:12 (ESV)

This week, we are meeting at my friend Lynn’s website “Spiritually Unequal Marriage“. This will be the last time my dear friend Lynn is hosting the event. It saddens my heart, but I know that God is moving mighty in Lynn’s life…Lynn, I will always be thankful for your friendship!!!!

I had a perfect day today. Sleeping a little later than normal, having my morning devotions as usual (including my first coffee)…Having breakfast with my husband. Yes, I took the day off work :). I had an appointment at the USCIS office to get my alien status renewed so that I can stay in the United States.

I am thankful that my sweetheart agreed to go with me; I was a little nervous. But the people at the Phoenix USCIS office were so nice!!!! And it was quick to get through the lines to get my fingerprints and photo taken.

We also went through down-town Phoenix to take photographs. Phoenix has changed so much over the past 20 years we live here. The city is still changing, but thankfully they are keeping some of the landmarks in tact like the Luhrs Tower.

Yes, today was a perfect day…and that my friends I am thankful for.

Thank you for stopping by today. Remember: take every day a gift and be thankful.

Love and peace,
