God is so good! I will never be able to say that enough. THANK YOU to everyone who supported us in our Usborne Book and More Fundraiser. You raised $2,227.30 that has been added to our next payment to the agency. Also because of your orders our family, as the show's host, had the chance to get free books. I labored over the catalog and watched YouTube videos for days to see where God was leading me to get books for our sweet little boy. I don’t know his exact age, I don’t know his name, I don’t know what he looks like, yet I could still imagine him sitting in my lap reading stories. I will tell you I cried more than once. THANK YOU FOR THE PART YOU PLAYED! Our Adoption Read-A-Thon Fundraiser will be beginning soon. Check out the packet attached below. You can start collecting pledges this weekend! The Read-A-Thon reading time begins on May 1st. Sophia is so excited to see how many friends will be joining her on this adventure. When the reading period ends, the participant will tally up their minutes, collect their pledge money from sponsors, and will mail the collected money to us by Friday, May 26th. You may also drop off your final donations to us at an arranged time. Everyone who participates and turns their pledges in on time will be entered to win an Usborne book prize pack (valued at over $40).
General Updates: We are moving forward in our home study and dossier process. Every day we put one foot in front of the other and keep going. There are a few families in the Burundi program that will be traveling within the month to bring their children home. Join me in lifting them up in prayer. Our caseworker, from All God’s Children International, recently visited Burundi. She came home feeling very positive about every part of the adoption process through Burundi. We know that all timing is God’s timing, but there are some great strides happening in country that are continuing to make for a shorter process overall. She shared a few pictures with us and it consumed my heart with love. Burundi is a beautiful country with beautiful people. I simply want to learn more and more and more. Dusty and I would covet your prayers as we move into the process of our home study where we are really narrowing in on specifics in regards to the child we feel God is leading us too. Pray that we have wisdom and discernment that comes from God. Pray we don’t let our hearts drive our discussion, but that God will protect our hearts from daydreaming.

AuthorMy name is Deidra Miller. I have been married to my wonderful husband, Dusty, for 17 years. We have two biological children and our family is growing again. We prayed for 2,786 days and God answered our prayers. More days (almost 4 years) have been added as we wait for God's perfect plan for our family. We can't wait to meet our beautiful twin boys!
