EVERY MOMent COUNTS!
Hi friends! I'm Jenae Jacobson! In my former life, I taught a class full of bright-eyed six-year olds all about phonics, sight words, and addition. I now have the God-given pleasure of being a full time wife and mommy and all that entails...the good, the bad, and the ugly! I am madly in love with my husband of 7 years. My two little boys fill me to the brim with love and drain me completely of my energy. I also share many of the fun and educational activities we do over at my blog ICanTeachMyChild.com. I am so thankful that God chose me to be a Mommy to my two sweet boys and I will spend all of my days striving to point them to the Everlasting One!

It’s hard not to get caught up in the hustle and bustle that has become December. With Christmas cards, class parties, and gifts to buy…it’s hard to find time to just be together. Spending time together as a family; however, is one of the most important ways we can instill the real meaning of Christmas [...]
I recently had one of my most humbling moments as a mother. After receiving a not-so-lovely report about our almost 4-year old son’s behavior in Bible class, I encouraged him to ask God for forgiveness in his bedtime prayer. He recanted by saying, “Yelling is a mistake too, Mommy. You need to ask God for [...]
