I know, we are too! I get sick of people asking me if she has a different dad, and my mother in law has some mild dementia so tells me every week how pale Emma is with a surprised tone, forgetting she's told me the same thing every week beforehand haha . Emma has 3 very white grandparents, two with blue eyes and one with green, and one Maori grandfather who passed away last year, who was darker with brown eyes. My OH has heterochromia (green eyes with random golden brown blotches) so he's likely picked up a lot of his green eyed, pale mothers genes.
I love genetics and think they are really interesting. Sorry to harp on, I spend a lot of my time explaining that I didn't cheat on my OH to random people haha! This is me as a kid, my dad is blonde, my mum was as a toddler also.
