Adopted baby with Down syndrome goes viral after smiling for mom

There’s nothing that warms the heart quite like babies with big smiles. Call me a softy all you want, but there really is nothing that can compare to young children radiating happiness.

Which is perhaps why a video posted by the National Down Syndrome Adoption Network a few years ago quickly achieved viral fame, proving immensely popular all over the internet.

The clip, featuring an adopted baby born with Down syndrome grinning happily at her adoptive mother, has already been seen by more than 14 million people.

It’s not too difficult to see why: the baby is absolutely adorable. She knows she’s in a loving family, and the joy she’s spreading is simply an extension of her own contentment.
