The Explanation

I have decided to start a blog, for a number of reasons, the main one being that I like people who live far away from me and this is a great way to keep people up to date with my many and various thoughts and life events. Secondly, my nephew, who is 17 months ( I think that's right) has a blog and he is way younger than me, so I'm going to take the plunge.

I would like to explain my blog site name "for real kiwi". I'm talking about the bird, which is a native of New Zealand, as I am, and is nocternal, as I am, though I am in Kansas City (thus the title of this site).

For those who need a little update, I'm in Kansas City as an Intercessory Missionary (with a 5 year visa with 3 1/2 years left). I serve at IHOP-KC, the international house of prayer in Kansas City, we pray 24/7 and I have the privilege of being in a section called "the night watch" the midnight-six am section. Which means I go to bed around 6:30 and get up around 1:45 (that's the aim anyway. I am also a core leader for fire in the night our internship in the night watch.
