Janna's time on earth with us was so short but she brought so much joy and happiness to our lives. Janna was such a happy, busy little girl who loved to laugh and smile and play. Heaven will be a very busy place with her.
Janna loved her Minnie Mouse, her meow meows and her giraffe. Her two favorite blankies were also always in tow. We would have Janna in one arm and her whole entourage in the other. But most of all, Janna loved her "Bruhber" Christian. They played together all day every day. He was her best friend and they shared a special bond of love. He called her his "little miss" and his "sissy".
Janna's number one fan was her daddy. She was such a daddy's girl; she had him wrapped around her tiny little finger. She loved to play with him and "nuggle" time together as they watched hours of Minnie Mouse Club House. She called him her Da Da Da Da.
Janna was such a beautiful girl and she knew it. She loved to be in dresses and have her nails painted. Pig tails were her favorite hairstyle so she could play with them. She was a real girly girl even at age two.
Janna is survived by her parents Theodore and Leah Jacobsen of Alden and her big brother Christian (age 4).
