A teenage girl with Down's Syndrome has lifted everybody's spirits after crying tears of joy in a heartwarming video.
According to People magazine, 14-year-old Bree Cox, who hails from the town of Murray in Utah, was recorded weeping in footage that has since emerged on social media.
The emotional clip shows the teen informing her father that she had managed to make her competition dance team at Murray High School after years of hard practice.
Take a look at the heartwarming footage for yourself in the video below:Bree's mom Kecia later uploaded the video of the moment to her Instagram account and captioned the post: "She made the high school drill team. Dad was working late so she had to call him to share her exciting news before she got in bed.
"She started crying she was so happy and when I asked if she was crying she said no I’m laughing. I honestly don’t think she has ever cried out of happiness before, she didn’t even know what to do."
The clip quickly picked up a lot of attention; sine accruing over 64,000 likes and thousands more comments as of the time of writing.
For example, one person wrote: "I love her reaction, so sincere and so excited!!! Congrats Bree!! [sic]"
A second person then wrote: "So awesome!!! Yay Bree! Congrats! This is the sweetest video. [sic]"
Another Instagram user then stated: "Go baby girl, go!!! This just made my entire day. [sic]"
Then this fan stated: "Simply the best! She deserves all of this celebration and more! I admire your courage, Bree!! [sic]"
Finally, someone else added: "Oh my gosh! I love this so much!!!! [sic]"
Commenting on her daughter's incredible success in a later interview with People, Kecia said that Bree was inspired to become a dancer in her own right by her two older sisters; 16-year-old Adrie, and 18-year-old Kyra.
Kecia stated: "You fight for your kids with special needs every day, to some degree, because you're their voice. So when these little victories happen, you're like: 'Okay, it's worth it. They're seen by somebody and they're valued.'
"For her to have this moment where she didn't feel different was worth it all for us. And the fact that she could do it with her sister is huge."
Congratulations, Bree!
