Writing about Parenting Children with Down Syndrome

We meet two local moms who have children with Down Syndrome. They’re both bloggers and have been honored nationally for their advocacy.

Kelle Hampton turned part of her blog “Enjoying the Small Things” into a memoir of her daughter’s first year. “Bloom” is about finding the beauty in the unexpected.

 
Eliana Tardio is a voice of Latino parents with special needs children. Her award winning blogs in English and Spanish give sage advice as she parents two children with Down Syndrome.
