To me, the best part was that I saw her spunk and fabulous clothes before I realized she had a walker. In fact, I went back to social media's hype thinking I had the wrong magazine for the cover shot. Now that's a job well done! Parents' shot made this little girl stand out not her disability.

One of the main characters uses a wheelchair, and in one episode, the whole glee club is in wheelchairs and are dancing. They are also having a contest where you have to sit in a wheelchair for a week to show people what it's like. Oh boy, how I wish that could be reality.

How can we work together in 2013 to raise our own expectations and challenge our beliefs?
