Amanda fell when she was little and cut her lip, (I dare you to find it.),. I think she doesn't like it, I feel it gives her character and It makes me smile to see it.

I've seen a photo where she pointed it out before. I have a very similar scar on my lip from ripping it open on a plastic chair with a sharp broken edge.
It does add character :)
(And I feel it's one more way to identify me when I'm dead)
