Hi! Mo here – Mortgage Loan Officer, Writer, Blogger, Wife, Mom…et cetera! Born and raised in
South Louisiana, my son is an Airman currently stationed here in the States. His military journey led me to bless other family members of active duty loved ones through support, prayers, and encouragement.
