Hello world (Jo Jo's world in case you didn't know)!

This is my first time ever having a blog or sharing myself this publicly. Even though this came to me through a school assignment, I'm so excited to be starting this. I always kept a journal when I was younger because I felt that it lifted weight off my shoulders when I could let my thoughts, concerns, and feelings out on paper. Of course, as I grew a little bit older and started a relationship with my now husband, working, and paying bills that my parents no long would for me, I found that I didn't have as much time as I once had to write all the time. Now that I "have to" write, I'm so excited!

I would like to tell a little about myself if you all don't mind. I suppose this is my blog, so it doesn't necessarily matter if you mind huh? I just hope that you all want to know about me. I'm 22 years old. I always say that I'm from Indiana because I have lived there the longest, but I'm an Air Force brat to the core. So I suppose I could say I'm from everywhere. I met and married my husband in Indianapolis, Indiana. About nine months before we got married, he decided to join the Air Force. He left for basic 11 days after we got married, and now here I am - in Bossier City, an Air Force wife. I can't complain because the military has taken very good care of me all my life. We were blessed with a beautiful baby girl, named Jordyn (hence Jo Jo's world as my blog name) in September. She is my pride and joy. I have loved a few times in my life, but I never knew love could amount to what a mother feels for her child. She is my everything, and now everything I do is for her. I've attended LSUS for three semesters and I am majoring in Business Administration.

I hope that paints somewhat of a picture of who I am for now. I look forward to sharing with you all, and also getting to know you. Until next time...

  1. Your lucky, I have always wanted to grow up in the military, becuase of all the traveling involved. I love the fact that you get to go some where new and learn about different cultures. How was India? I bet it was a beautiful place to live and grow up.

    1. I have heard that India is a beautiful place to be, however I've never been. I lived in Indianapolis, Indiana the longest. I have been to a bunch of other cool places. It was hard moving around so much as a kid, but now that I am older, I greatly appreciate the experiences. I hope to do a lot more traveling with my husband in daughter in the future.
