When Natalie was born, her mother noticed a large dark birthmark on her face. Though the medical team assured them it was harmless, the mark looked like a bruise, causing initial worry.
Despite relief over her health, Lacey and Andrew worried how others might perceive Natalie. They chose to celebrate the birthmark—Andrew told his older sons it was a superhero mask, symbolizing strength and uniqueness.

Natalie’s story went viral, and while some stared, many praised her beauty and individuality. Medical checks confirmed Natalie’s vision and health were fine. Diagnosed with Congenital Melanocytic Nevi, a common birthmark with a small associated risk, Natalie’s family remains positive.
Today, Natalie is thriving—a joyful, caring, and confident little girl, embraced by her loving family and living her best life as their little superhero.
