This kid's well on his way to making friends in high places.

When Wil Lawrence was born with Down syndrome three years ago, his father decided to put his photography skills to work promoting positive images of people with the condition.

"Wil actually choose flying as the theme," Alan Lawrence told Good News Network. "When he learned to roll over on his stomach he would wiggle his feet and arms like he wanted to fly, so being a photographer I decided to help him make that a reality."

The pictures turned the toddler into something of a real-life superhero after they were featured in a calendar to raise money and awareness for people with Down syndrome. Alan was honored with this year's Utah Down Syndrome Foundation Buddy Walk Recognition Award.

For the little superhero, his work seems never ending:

"It has been so incredibly fun doing these photos with Wil," he told Good News Network. "They have become a true celebration of the blessing he is to our family."

Half the proceeds from the Wil Can Fly calendars go to two Down syndrome organizations: Reese's Rainbow and Ruby's Rainbow. Follow the family's adventures at That Dad Blog.
