Mom wants to show 13 month old daughter with rare birthmark that she is beautiful

Nicole Lucas Hall is determined to show the world the unique beauty of her daughter, Winry, who was born with a rare birthmark known as congenital melanocytic nevi (CMN). Covering a quarter of Winry’s face, the birthmark was initially mistaken for a bruise before medical staff identified it, reassuring Nicole that her daughter was perfectly healthy.

Nicole hopes to foster acceptance and understanding by encouraging parents to have open conversations with their children about the beauty in differences. While she worries about the possibility of bullying as Winry grows older, she’s also proud to share that Winry is a happy, spirited child who radiates joy and resilience.
