She's Always Been Embarrassed About The Birthmark On Her Face Until Her Mom Changed Everything

6-year-old Navaeh Bird was born with a port wine stain across the left side of her face.  Things haven't always been easy for her.  She's always had to deal with some very strange looks and questions from strangers.  But, with a little help from mom, she's learning to embrace her differences.

Navaeh's grandmother bought her a doll that was modeled after her.  Despite loving the gift, Navaeh said something was missing.  She wanted the doll to have a red birthmark, just like her.

So her mom grabbed some lipstick and took care of business.  She drew the birthmark onto the doll's face, wiped it off, and sealed the dyed design with clear nail polish.  

"It keeps instilling in her to stay positive about it.  She's really excited about [the doll,] she shows it off to all her friends.  She looks at it and sees how pretty the doll is, and sees how pretty she is."
