Jessica Smartt is the author of Memory-Making Mom, Let Them Be Kids, and Come on Home. She graduated from Grove City College with a degree in English, a religion minor, and a hankering to pour into kids. After teaching middle school English for five years, she was promoted to her current position and dream job: wife, homeschooling mom, author, and professional encourager of weary moms. She lives in sunny North Carolina on a family farm with horses, chickens, and an ever-increasing number of beloved cats. She and her husband, Todd, have three beautiful children. She loves to energize everyday moms to save childhood and build close-knit families. Jessica's favorites include bike rides, spinach quiche, a clean kitchen, being warm, national parks, and food that anyone else makes.
