Being a little person comes with a lot of challenges, especially when people tend to think you can't do as much as they can. One little girl with dwarfism is showing everyone how to live life to the fullest no matter what makes you different. Her amazing dance to Taylor Swift's hit song, "Shake It Off" has viewers from around the world celebrating their own uniqueness.

When you have dwarfism, your height is the first thing most people notice. Rilee might be smaller than most people, but she is a healthy, regular 5-year-old who loves to dance, sing and share her positivity with everyone.

Rilee was born with a form of dwarfism called achondroplasia. This condition results in a disproportionate body that has an average torso but shorter arms and legs. Rilee is so young but has already been teased and bullied at school for her dwarfism. But she won't let any bullies hold her down.

Rilee's mom wanted to help empower her daughter and send a strong message online about the importance of loving who you are no matter what. She recorded a video of her daughter dancing to "Shake It Off," and it's one of the most adorable things we've seen all week.

Throughout the video, Rilee twirls, dances and shakes her hips in a defiant manner that lets any bully or naysayer know they can't get to her. With over 5000 likes and comments from people all around the country, Rilee is a wonderful example of how you're never too young (or old!) to love yourself fully.
