"What makes you different makes you beautiful"

I saw a link to this video and article earlier this week and it melted my heart. I welcome everyone to watch it.

I love how the mother sees the billboard as an opportunity to celebrate life, not brag about her daughter, point out her difficulties, or show off her beautiful family.

As she says, “I hope people see value in any and all life. I hope they get to see what I see in my daughter every day: a little, beautiful , happy soul. And yes, she has Down Syndrome, but I think differences in people need to be celebrated and we need to see the beauty in that.”
