My OH's SIL is biracial, black/white.. so their daughter is a quarter black, and 3 quarters white.. she is probably the most beautiful baby ever!! She has light caramel skin, blue eyes, blonde hair.. just gorgeous. We always make jokes like, "Penny's so light, it looks like S[OH's SIL] stole that baby in the hospital!!" and stuff like, "People probably think she's the milk
woman's baby.." because she looks so much like J (OH's brother) and is so light, it's hard to believe she's mixed at all! S is a good sport about it though, and her whole family is.. though when she was pregnant nobody expected her to give birth to a blonde haired, blue eyed baby!
It's all in good fun.. our whole family is diverse. That baby has cousins that are Caucasian mixed with Hispanic, Native American, and a whole lotta who knows what?
My donor is a very, very dark-skinned man.. he is 1/4 Hispanic, 1/4 Native American and 1/2 Caucasian, but he's very dark.. dark skin, eyes, and hair, with extremely Native features. I'm probably the whitest person I know!! I literally "blind" people and can glow in a black light! I have blue eyes and wavy brown/red hair.. I know that his genes are dominant and most likely my baby is going to come out with darker hair, skin, and eyes than me. It makes me think sometimes, what
are people going to think? Are they going to think my baby is another race or, not even mine? But I end up laughing at myself before I get serious when I think these thoughts.. who am I kidding? Mixed-race children are just the most beautiful babies!!
I'm really delighted for you! I think your family is going to be just beautiful, both with your little lady, your OH's children and the baby you'll make together!
