Parents were really surprised when their baby was born with a big smile on its face.

Ayla Summer Mucha startled her parents by beaming brightly when she was born in December 2021. Her parents fell in love with her right away, despite their first confusion due to an unusual illness that caused her smile to be permanent. Ayla is now well-known on social media, and her charming smile is adored by people everywhere.On December 30, 2021, Cristina Vercher and her husband Blaize Mucha were eager to finally see their newborn girl after nine months of waiting. However, unexpected news was delivered by the doctors during the C-section delivery.Due to bilateral macrostomia, Ayla Summer Mucha’s mouth did not form normally from birth.When a baby is growing inside its mother, the corners of the mouth sometimes don’t meet correctly, a condition known as a facial cleft. Just 14 cases similar to it have been documented in medical books due to its extreme rarity.Because the ultrasounds revealed no issues, Ayla’s parents were unaware of this until after she was born. They became really concerned when they noticed that she was speaking with her mouth agape. Even though Ayla was so small, the problem was evident, which startled and worried Ayla’s parents, who are now 23 and 22 respectively.”I had never met anyone born with a macrostomia, and neither Blaize nor I knew about this condition,” Adelaide’s Vercher remarked. Thus, it came as a huge surprise.Not just the parents expressed surprise.

A baby with bilateral macrostomia was beyond the capabilities of even the medical professionals.The fact that it took hours for a doctor to respond to our questions made it much more concerning. She added that the hospital was also ignorant of this uncommon ailment. “As a mother, all I could focus on was my mistakes.”However, medical professionals informed the anxious parents that there was nothing more they could have done. Cristina was concerned that she might have erred during her pregnancy or contributed to her daughter’s illness.She remarked, “I couldn’t stop wondering where I might have made a mistake as a mother.” They were convinced, nevertheless, that they had no influence over this problem and that they were not to blame following days of genetic testing and scans.The Mucha family concentrated on assisting Ayla in managing her illness, which limits her food and drink options, comfortably. Babies with this illness occasionally require surgery to become better.Ayla’s parents posted her story on social media so that people may learn more about it. Around 6.5 million users enjoyed Ayla’s adorable smile on TikTok. The amount of support that the Muchas received shocked them.”I just looked it up, and there are only 14 cases like hers that are known,” a commenter said. She is truly unique. Mom, you ought to feel proud.Regarding Ayla’s smile, another internet user stated, “She is gorgeous and just perfect the way she is.” Her smile made me smile as well.But nasty things about Ayla were said by several people online. But Ayla’s supporters swiftly came to her aid.”Your daughter is stunningly gorgeous. Never pay attention to such nasty folks. One individual remarked, “She’s like an angel.” Someone else posted, “Oh my gosh! You’re quite adorable! Pay no attention to their hurtful remarks. You’re simply too cute.”You’re a strong mom, and your daughter is beautiful,” commented another commenter. I apologize for exposing you to those hurtful remarks.Vercher said, “I think it’s important to be kind and accept everyone, no matter what,” to the hurtful remarks made about her child.If she and her child were in a similar circumstance, she hoped that people would treat them with the same respect. Vercher said that anyone could experience similar circumstances. She added that since you have no control over what other people say on social media, it can be a difficult place.Vercher ignored the criticism in favor of highlighting the encouragement and kind remarks. “We’re really proud of ourselves, so we won’t stop sharing our experiences and favorite memories,” she remarked.

Husband Returns from Business Trip and Sees Newborn Baby on Table with Two Notes beside — Story of the Day

A man is accused of being the father of a baby abandoned on his doorstep and it costs him his marriage and his way of life.

Kyle Greenbecker had spent a year working on an oil pipeline in Alaska, but finally, he was on his way home to his beautiful wife. He and Lisa met in high school, and Kyle had never regretted marrying her at nineteen.

Maybe he was old-fashioned, but Kyle was proud that Lisa was the only woman he’d been intimate with in his life. He didn’t need and didn’t want anyone else. It never occurred to him that Lisa would ever doubt him — and with good reason.

When his plane landed, Kyle collected his luggage and walked out with the other passengers, scanning the crowd for Lisa’s beloved face, but she wasn’t there to pick him up.

Probably, Kyle thought, she’d been held up at work with some emergency. He sent her a quick text telling her he was on his way home but got no reply. He hopped into an Uber and in an hour he was walking up to his front door.

The lights were on in the lounge, but Lisa wasn’t there. He made his way to the kitchen and stopped in the doorway, stunned. Resting on top of the kitchen table was a bassinet, and Kyle could see a small arm waving aimlessly.

He took a step closer. There was a bassinet with a baby on his kitchen table! The child was looking back at Kyle with that astonished look babies have, and Kyle stared back just as astonished.

Then he saw a folded paper on the table next to the bassinet. He picked it up and unfolded it. Inside was another sheet of paper with a message in a handwriting he didn’t recognize: “You had your fun, now take responsibility for your child.”

Meanwhile, the note addressed to him in Lisa’s elegant script read:

“Kyle, yesterday I found this child on our doorstep with that note attached. I always suspected you cheated on me during your business trips, but I didn’t hold a grudge on you for that — after all, I had plenty of flings while you were away — but saddling me with someone else’s child is too much. I’ve filed for a divorce, and I earnestly hope I will never see you again.

“P.S. And about the baby, don’t worry, I only left when I saw you walk up the drive. Enjoy your life, Kyle, I certainly intend to enjoy mine.”

Kyle sat down and dropped his head in his hands. He couldn’t believe this was happening to him. This child wasn’t his, he’d never cheated on Lisa, ever! A soft cooing sound made him raise his head.

The baby was waving its little hand in the air, so Kyle brought his own hand closer and to his surprise, the child grabbed onto his index finger with incredible strength.

“Well, baby,” Kyle said. “I guess it’s just us two, and I don’t know what to do with you!”

The baby cooed again and gurgled, then screwed up his face in an alarming way and turned bright red. “Oh my God!” cried Kyle. “What’s happening?” A certain smell quickly elucidated him.

Yep, it was diaper time. But was there even a diaper? On the floor next to the table was a large backpack with several snap pockets that he’d never seen before. Kyle found a bewildering array of items inside and the diapers.

He quickly googled diaper change and watched carefully as a woman on YouTube demonstrated on a life-like doll how to change a diaper.

Kyle started following her instructions but things didn’t run that smoothly. The woman’s life-like doll didn’t move its legs, or sink its kicking heels in the stinking and unmentionable contents of the dirty diaper! After wiping the baby clean, Kyle realized it was a girl, and he didn’t know anything about girls!

“I won’t be giving you dating advice,” he told the baby solemnly. “But I can teach you how to ride a bike.”

Kyle realized in that moment that he intended to keep this baby.

He picked up the freshly diapered baby and said, “You need me, and I guess I need you too. So how about it, kid?”

Kyle once again consulted the YouTube baby-guru to prepare the formula and settled the baby in the crook of his arm for her feed.

“You need a name, you know that? How about… Celeste? Do you like that? Or Lily…”

If anyone had told Kyle that he would settle into fatherhood so easily and so smoothly he would never have believed it. Lily had her moments and her tantrums, but somehow things worked out.

Kyle registered Lily as his child and enrolled her in daycare. For him, her birthday was on the day he’d found her. But it was on Lily’s second birthday that Kyle’s world fell apart.

A woman knocked on her door. “I’ve come for my baby,” she said. Kyle just looked at her. She was tall, blonde, and thin, with huge breasts that were obviously a product of a plastic surgeon’s art.

“Your what?” Kyle asked.

A real parent is the one who loves and cherishes the child.

“My baby,” she snapped. “I left her here two years ago? Sorry about that, but I was a bit stoned and my boyfriend lives on the next block over and I got confused. You know how it is!”

“Sorry, I don’t know how that is because I’ve never abandoned a child on anyone’s doorstep,” Kyle said coldly. “I’d get a move on if I were you, or I’ll call the police.”

“Now look here,” the woman said sharply. “I figured I made a mistake about a week later when Burt didn’t take my calls, but now I need that baby!”

“You need her?” asked Kyle angrily. “What do you need her for?”

“Burt just got himself a Major League contract,” the woman said. “And that baby’s gone make sure some of those millions land in my bank account!”

Kyle ran the woman off, but he had a feeling he hadn’t seen the last of her. He was right. A week later he was summoned to family court. A Miss Cherish Vegas was contesting his adoption of baby Lily.

Suddenly, Kyle was showered with injunctions, was visited by Social Services at odd hours of the day or night, and his friends and co-workers were being questioned. Cherish really meant to get her hands on those millions!

Finally, the day of the hearing arrived. Kyle nervously handed over Lily to the social worker for the duration of the hearing and walked in. Cherish was there, of course, and a tall man with Lily’s blue eyes was on her side of the court. This could only be the famous Burt!

Cherish cried and sniveled and told the judge how much she loved and missed her baby, and how her wild college days (now long past and deeply regretted) had led her to place her in Kyle’s care.

The judge looked down at the papers in front of her. “By in his care, you mean on his porch, isn’t that right, Miss Vegas?” asked the judge.

Cherish flushed red. “Well, I’m still her mama! No one can deny that!” she screamed.

The judge looked at Burt. “You sir, you are the father?”

Burt lumbered to his feet and said, “I guess I must be…”

The judge fixed him with a flinty eye. “Are you prepared and able to take on the parental responsibilities for this child?”

Cherish screamed, “You bet he is, judge, he just signed a three million dollar contract to play ball…”

“Oh!” cried the judge. “Finally, the truth is out! Tell me, Miss Vegas, what name did you give your daughter?”

“Name?” asked Cherish, confused. “Why, she’ll have her daddy’s name., since he’ll be paying child support!”

Kyle stood up. “Your honor,” he said. “May I address the court?”

“Yes, Mr. Greenbecker,” said the judge. “Please do.”

“Ma’am, my daughter’s name is Lily, and she does have her father’s name — mine. Since the moment that child came into my life I’ve loved her, and she loves me.”

At that moment, Lily, who had been playing with the social worker’s necklace noticed that Kyle was standing up. “Daddy!” she cried and stretched out her arms.

“Well, ladies and gentlemen, it seems to me that the case has been decided by the principal party,” the judge said. “I hereby overturn all claims of custody of the child Lily Grennbecker and confirm Kyle Greenbecker’s custody and adoption.

That night, Kyle celebrated his victory in court and he and Lily spent the evening catching lightning bugs in the garden. “Stars!” cried Lily. But for Kyle, the brightest star of all was his little girl.

What can we learn from this story?

  • A real parent is one who loves and cherishes the child. Kyle took care of Lily and loved her as if she were his own.
  • A heartless woman will use anyone, even her child, for profit. Cherish didn’t want Lily, she just wanted Burt’s money.
