Birthmarks

All of my kids have birthmarks, and I've posted about them before (the hole on Tilly's nose, Hyatt's arrowhead marks and his mongolian spot on his back, and Kiersa's red patch on her leg), but when Paisli was born, I couldn't find a birthmark on her.

Was she truly mine?

I was beginning to wonder if I had indeed been given the correct baby at the hospital, but when I shaved her head and saw the familiar prickly-bald head that I've given all my babies, I was sure she was mine. Then, when I turned her around, I discovered that with the loss of her mullet, I could see where her birthmark had been hiding. She has a red blotchy spot on the back of her head by her neck! She IS mine afterall!!! Yeah!!!
