The point being, Zachary and I are family people, and we are
glad to be back where we have family.
Never mind what an awesome place our Ponca City is. Some people leave Ponca City only to return
months or years later because they love it that much. Many never left at all.
Ponca City is a beautiful city. With the mild summer and plenty of rain we
had this year, we are enjoying a lush, green August. What a joy it was for me to stroll through the
Cann Memorial Gardens with my husband and daughter the other day. It is vibrant and alive with colorful flowers
and full greenery. The gardens and I have history together. It is the garden I went to as a kid on
homeschool field trips, created music in as part of Miss Suzi’s Singing School
during the Herb Festival, and walked with my sweetheart during our courting
days. I even did some research on the ancestry of the family that originally
lived on the property and donated it to Ponca City. Zachary proposed to me at
the Cann Gardens, and we spent blissful hours planning our wedding and marriage
there. Now we are back with our daughter!
It is also a great place to walk with friends and catch up about our
exciting summers and plans for coming months.
Anna is soaking up
the grandparent time. She is truly blessed to have all four grandparents and
one great grandparent here in Ponca City. Of course, she isn’t spoiled at all! J An aunt and uncle make
life even more exciting.
Zachary is working hard to build his business [Zachary J
Pruett Computers] and do other work to keep the bills paid and food on the
table. The Lord has blessed us with timely opportunities. He loves working with
computers, and I love watching him problem solve and enjoy his work so much. Thank
you, Jesus!
Although the last of the boxes haven’t been unpacked yet,
our little house is beginning to feel a lot like home. I wonder what the next
few years will bring?
