Little Ella Joy truly is a joy in my life. She is full of energy and she always keeps us on our toes. She definitely has a defiant side (and it’s pretty crazy when a two year old knows the word ‘no’ in two languages), but she’s just so cute! I don’t think I will ever get enough of her coming up to me with her ‘nee-nee’ (blanket) and snuggling on my lap. On Sunday, she had a fever, and a few weeks ago she had gotten quite a few mosquito bites. So, we were all worried that she had Malaria. When someone has Malaria, it is important to begin the treatment as quickly as possible so that it doesn’t get worse. We didn’t know of a place to get Ella tested that was open on Sundays, but some friends who are doctors told us about a clinic that is open 24 hours a day. They got her tested that night, and it came back positive. We started giving her treatment right away, and now she is completely better!! The Lord truly answered our prayers for a quick recovery. It’s so wonderful to have Ella back to normal!

I am not sure if I left a comment on your site already but reading this post was almost eerie to me. We have an almost 2 year old Ella Joy and she sounds JUST like your little one. AND she calls her blanke nee-nee as well. Waving from NYC. Tina and Ella Joy
