Genetics are weird. The Rod kids are only 1/4 Portuguese, so I wouldn't expect too many "dark" ones. Like Shrek, I'm half Portuguese and am pasty white. My childhood coloring was like Janessa, although my hair got darker as I got older. I don't have kids, but if I did, I would probably have some "darker" ones; my husband is half Serbian and is around Nurie on the color scale. However, my SIL is more like Hannah. I doubt any of my kids would have been ghost white like me. π
