This is my friend Betty's daughter, Milana! It's her first modeling gig for the Etsy shop of another friend, also a mom of a child with special needs - like Ben! Milana has some big challenges but you could never tell by looking at her in this picture. Doesn't she look darling? I met her at the C-17 Koolen Syndrome gathering I got to attend in Indiana last month. Christina's designs at Emily Ann's Closet are just amazing! These friends are both incredible moms who offer lots of encouragement to others. Check out her shop when you get a chance, and please pass on the link! Thanks, Jan

She's a cutie! As a retired Special Education teacher, I take great pride in seeing our people with challenges doing normal things. She is a great model and hope to see her model more items.

She is very pretty, and appears to be enjoying her modeling job!! Many of those with special challenges will amaze most of us, if given the opportunity to reveal there talents! So happy Milana was given this opportunity!

She is certainly an exemplary model, even down to the pouty look. She's beautiful!

She's not really a model. Her mommy just took this photo of her in her new dress, and it just turned out soooo cute, Christina featured her on her Etsy site. We called it her "first gig" but she really does have that model "pouty face" doesn't she? We all had a big laugh at how this turned out. Christina's little girl is Emily and she has the same syndrome as Ben, Koolen's Syndrome. Betty's daughter, Milana, doesn't have the diagnosis yet. They are both incredible mommies.
Thanks for your sweet comments. Hugs, Jan
