Mom Seeks God Book Review and Tour (Litfuse)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.

I read Mom Seeks God: Practicing Grace in the Chaos, in exchange for honest review from Litfuse. I received a pdf version. The book starts out with Roller discussing her son Ben from birh.


The book is available in Kindle and Paperback format.



My Review

I wanted to review the book because I am a mom, who seeks God. Raising children is  hard work. Raising special needs kids is no picnic. I am constantly asking God for guidance, patience, and understanding. I still have to find time to do homework, clean, and have a few peaceful, quiet, moments to myself. I also need God during moments of chaos such as when Brad acts up at school or when Kalen has a breath holding spell.

Mom Seeks God is a good book to read. Roller discusses the ups and downs of mother hood and how she truly needs God all the time. She talks about not being in control at times of her schedule because the kids can alter plans. You want to do homework and the baby wakes up. You want to clean, but the teenager has a meltdown. Roller also discusses how she found ways to cultivate a relationship with God.

Saturday Morning

Saturday Morning

I been up since 8 am, not because I want to, but because my 11 year old created a water park in the bathroom. There was water everywhere and he tried to use the baby's tub as a step stool. Then he got hungry for some chips and dip. I also made him clean up the mess he made on my bedroom floor. Mostly his books, flashcards, and my penny collection. I have to accept the fact that my room will never be perfectly clean again, especially not with two boys sharing the same space.  Later on, we went to the bank and family dollar for some diapers, wipes, and pull-ups. Boy 1 threw a few books around in the store. So happy to get out of there. Then he had a temper tantrum in the car because he saw something, but could not tell me what. So he tried to attack the baby by pinching Boy 2's cheeks and trying to bite his hand. Yay. The joys of an autistic mom. We back home now and he running around playing his "Bob Bob" game. The baby is finally asleep after dealing with his brother. He been cranky ever since the car ride.
