This 18-Year-Old With Down Syndrome Just Won Model of the Year, and This Is Why

"Wanting to be a model and being a model are two different things — you have to understand what it takes. So I took her to a photo shoot in April and she loved it. I don't really know what she did in the photo shoot because she made me sit in the waiting room as every 18-year-old does; a young woman doesn't want her mother around. But the photos came out amazing and I sent them out in May this year and they just went viral . . . I posted another photo on Facebook on Tuesday night, and overnight it got 600,000 views."
