Our sweet baby girl was born with a rare skin disease called Epidermolysis Bullosa. On the day she was born our lives changed forever. Through her life God has shown us his power, comfort and healing hand. We are blessed to be Ella's parents and can't wait to see what God has in store for her life.

Welcome Home!
It's official. Joella is home!!!!!
We brought her home this afternoon. Pictures are forthcoming.
Katie and Joe, How happy we are for you to have Joella home with you! We do thank the Lord for answered prayer and trust Him to keep His healing hand on her. May the Lord continue to supply you with wisdom at this joyful time. Don and Karen Johnson
Congrats! It's awesome to see the way The Lord has provided for all of your needs since she's been born. From Katie's job situation, to the insurance situation, to, most importantly, healing Joella enough for you to take her home after only slightly longer than a month, God has provided for their every need. This testimony has made Matthew 6:25-27 even more real to me. In it, Jesus says:
“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?"
I'm Erica Roberts's roommate and when she shared Joella's story with me, I started reading your blog and praying hard. She is a beautiful baby and I am so glad that things have progressed as well as they have! I admire your grace and strength so much and am so happy that she is home!
Yeah!!! Praise Praise Praise!!!! Finally the Family is together. God bless you all and I will continue to pray for all of you and that Joella will continue to heal. With all the love has has poured into your family I know she will have no problem feeling the LOVE!!! I'm so happy for you all love Melody
