God Loves Mommy & Me Review and Giveaway
I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This book is perfect for Mother’s Day and beyond. Mothers are connected to their children and reading to them also brings them closer. God’s love is shown through a mother’s love for her children. This cute, quick read is beautifully illustrated and it goes along and shares the day by day adventure of a mommy bunny and her little bunny and infuses God all through it. Showing how He loves us and I believe the best part in the book is when they pray they always say, “You’re so good, God-thank You!” Â At such an early age it…

Hubby and I are approaching our 10 year anniversary next year and as many others it has not been the smoothest road. There have been many times we were going to part ways before and with Christ. We both came from very different home situations and experiences and brought that into our marriage…
