Description:
A determined girl who has Down Syndrome and her proud parents jump with joy after shooting over and over without giving up until she makes her first ever basketball shot. Emalee Pinard, aged eight, was diagnosed with Down Syndrome moments after she was born in 2015, which came as a huge shock mom Nao, 41, said. After visions of having a neurotypical daughter, Nao said she quickly realized the joy, magic, and happiness that comes from raising a child with Down Syndrome, and she now cannot imagine Emalee or her life without the condition. Over the years that followed, Nao opted to share her daughter's development on social media, looking to spread awareness of Down Syndrome and celebrate Emalee's achievements along the way. Emalee is hard-working and tenacious, Nao said, and on April 14, at a local neighborhood park near the family’s Toronto home, she asked if she could try to make a basket on a nearby basketball court. Knowing her daughter rarely stops until she has completed a task, Nao and her husband, Shaun, 41, let their daughter attempt a shot, which, at first, resulted in failure. Despite that first miss, though, a determined Emalee asked her parents if she could try again and again.
