She might have learned to smile. I know, it's unfair to base that on two pictures, but when they take your picture you're supposed to smile. But National Geographic had an twenty-whatever years article on her and how they finally found her again. I don't recall any pictures in it where she was smiling.

Update: Wikipedia has an article on her. Her name is Sharbat Gula. The Wikipedia article also links to the National Geographic article about her, and the original article.
And no smile I've found.
