This is so funny. I noted on anothr topic that my black daughter seems to be the only one and I hope it's not my ancestry ( eruopean ) that she got it from. I'm IRISH!

I couldn't let this one pass me by =)
I'm 5'2 with a small frame (wish i could say it's a large frame, but it's just fat!). I have dark hair and green eyes. I'm Cherokee and Irish.
My dh is 5'10 and around 170. He's Polish. He has very light brown hair (blonde as a child) and blue eyes.
Ds has blonde hair and blue eyes. His eyelashes are a normal length [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img]
this is really weird.
My DS is white blonde hair, blue eyes and the firs thing that everyone comments about are his long long eyelashes. I am also petite ..5'1" and 103 lbs. Crazy isn't it how much we all have in common.

I just had to throuw this in here: last night my aunt was visiting and kept talking about the length of his eyelashes. And here I said they were a normal length. What do I know
Wow, the similarities are amazing! My PA son takes after dh who is -what else?- Irish: fair skin, blue eyes, and yes, lovely long eyelashes. I'm definitely a petite mom at barely 5 feet tall. Would love to see a study on this someday!
Wow this is interesting, my son is light brown/blond, blue eyes & yes LONG eye lashes.
I'm mostly Irish with some Russian and German thrown in and I'm 5'2", My dh is 100% Irish.
My ds with allergies is incredibly fair skinned, with light RED hair, huge blue eyes, and yes the eyelashes again. WEIRD.
His twin brother has dark hair, hazel eyes, not quite as light a compexion, but still the long eyelashes. He has no allergies.
Let the mystery connection continue.

This is a very interesting topic. My son has a PA. I am Caucasian and my husband it Oriental. Our allergist told us that the chances of our children having allergies is based on if we have allergies and/or asthma. We both have allergies and I have asthma.
However I am petite, fair skinned. My son has dark hair, dark eyes dark skin but has a PA.
Somewhat off topic but related. When my daughter was born, she was a sent for a cystic fibrosis test. My pediatrician (sp?) told me that the chances of her having CF was slim because of our mixed races. Which surprised me!
I don't remember when I was younger ever hearing of anyone having a peanut allergy. So I belive it must have something to do with the environment or what we are eating (Processed Foods, pesticides etc)as well has the family's history.
