Genetics

 A few years ago in Japan Athena was convinced that she was related to her friend Aria! Reason being that they both had the same color of hair and eyes as well as a love for dogs. She was young then and didn't understand. 

This morning she wore her Japanese kimono to church. She asked me "Do I look Japanese?"

I responded "No, your hair is too light and your eyes are blue."

She said "There are blonde Japanese people." I think she believes the Americans we knew in Japan were Japanese simply because they lived in Japan. 

She then said "Well, I am part Japanese!" 

Lol. Maybe she still doesn't understand how this works.
