Professional photographer and blogger Kelle Hampton recently discussed her experience in giving birth to a baby with Down Syndrome in January telling CNA that life for her and many other families with a disabled child is “beautiful and normal.”
In an interview with the online ParentDish on Tuesday, Hampton recalled how her blog, “Enjoying the Small Things,” received 2,000 hits for her Jan. 29 post which candidly detailed her emotional experience in giving birth to her daughter, Nella Cordelia.
“I knew the minute I saw her that she had Down Syndrome and nobody else did,” Hampton wrote in her January blog post after giving birth. “I held her and cried.

Abortion of any kind really angers me-but anyone who would abort a baby just because it has Down’s syndrome makes my blood really, really boil.
