- Are there any unusual genetic traits that run in your family line?
- Red hair! On both my mom and dad's side there are a ton of redheads. We have ancestors from both Ireland and Scotland, which I'm sure is where it comes from. My Grandma Sharee was a redhead, and there are one or two aunts and uncles on both sides that are redheads. My mom always jokes though that it's the blondes or brunettes that end up with the redhead kids. Andrew and I have both always had red hair, although mine fluxuates in it's redness.
- Freckles? This is kind of an obvious addition to the red hair, but our family has very fair skin and almost everyone has freckles. Sadie doesn't have too many, but the rest of us do.
-Moles... For whatever reason our family, from my dad's side, has a lot of moles. I have a lot, but they usually blend in with my freckles. This is probably where Jasmine's congenital nevus comes from, but there's no actual genetic evidence for that.
-Humor. This might not actually be a genetic trait, but our whole family for sure has a great sense of humor. We don't all have the same sense of humor, but we're all able to laugh and joke our whole day through.
