Anni, Bryan and I were doing a little armchair geneticizing today, trying to determine who Elise got her features from. You know, eyes, nose, face, etc.
Then Anni said something that would really leave you scratching your head. She was talking about the seemingly random way babies inherit looks and genetics from family:
"I picture my womb as a slot machine," Anni said, obviously getting our attention.
"Ding! 'You get Grandma's eyes,'" she said, "and Ding! 'You get Dad's ears.'"
If my genetics class in college was that easy, I'd still be a biology major. You can bet on it.
