Ten on Tuesday - K (Kinda fragmented with some big grammer issues, but you get the general idea.)

1. Killing Me Softly – I’ve joked with Jen that this is our song…but really its God’s work. I mean those times when a friend of yours is speaking the same thing that is on your heart! It’s blows me away how often God uses friends and family in my life. When our struggles really are so similar and we can teach and sharpen each other if we just step out and share what’s really going on in our lives instead of trying to hide it so that we look put together.
2. Kierkegaard – My Mom sent me a card last week with a quote from Soren Kierkegaard that I just love “If I were to wish for anything, I should not wish for wealth and power, but for the passionate sense of the potential . . . for the eye which, ever young and ardent, sees the possible.” Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres…
3. Kris – God has used this new friend in my life more than I ever thought possible. I will continually praise Him for His perfect plan.
4. Kites – My family flies kites. It’s just something we do, we go to Mission beach and fly kites. It is frivolous and fun and brings us together as a family. I love it.
5. Kindred Spirits – I love this description of two friends that really know everything about each other and understand each other.
6. Kind – I used to listen to a song about kindness when I was a child, and I love that it is still in my head today. “When I treat you kindly, it makes you happy, changes your insides. Makes you feel encouraged, loved and special, and it makes you kind. Isn’t God good when he asks us just to love like he does? Isn’t God good, when he asks us, just to be so kind.”
7. Kindergarten – I’ve decided that if I could do it all over again, I wouldn’t be an analyst. I’d be a kindergarten teacher. However since I can’t do it all over again, I am so thankful that the Lord helped me discover such an intense desire to love the kids in my life.
8. Ken doll’s – without him, where would baby Barbies come from? OK not really. Man “K” isn’t easy! Moving on!
9. Kissing – It’s probably one of the best uses of your time in a marriage relationship.
10. Klondike bars – It’s a standard, but not required dessert at family functions. One of the things I will typically pick up on my way to wii night with my sister. We started getting them for family nights growing up and they stuck. They are so delicious!
11. Kahuna (as in The Big Kahuna) – A very popular movie in my family growing up was a movie called Back to the Beach with Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon and…yes none other them PeeWee Herman (pre-scandal). It’s super cheesy but has some classic lines in it…one of them was a favorite “Mom am I adopted, if not, can I be now?”

Not sure who started it (probably YOU! LOL!), but one of my favorite things about our friendship is the lack of pretense. We're not trying to impress each other or pretend to be someone we're not. We can be real and honest about where we're at - our victories, our struggles and that is beautiful to me. So refreshing in a world of keeping up appearances to find another soul who enjoys meaningful conversations about things that really matter. I learn so much from you!
* Kites are the BEST!
