'What we saw was value'


"Incompatible with life? What we saw...was value, beauty, potential, our precious daughter."

Listen to New Zealand photographer Rachel Callander talk about how her daughter Evie inspired her travels across the country to meet with families with children with chromosome differences. The result is a photographic art book called the Super Power Baby Project. 


The real deficit, Rachel says, is not to be found in children with genetic conditions, but in a culture that fails to embrace their humanity. This woman rocks her talk.

I love this. I'd love to share this on Henibean? It's so true of my own experience with Heni. Only her sound is Aaaa!
