Question:

WHY do I LOOK DIFFRENT?

ok. both my parents are white, and we have family books, with pics of family memebers going way back, but me and my sis came out darker and look nothing like anyone on either sides of our family. when i was little i looked white, but when i got about 6 i started changing. for instinced, i had blonde straight hair and now i have dark dark curly thick hair. i have a roman or italian nose as people call it, and the shape and size of my eyes, people say i have asian eyes. im also way darker in skin then i was before, and im often mistaken for puerto rican and filipino. my sis on the other hand was always kinda dark, with curly thin hair, big eyes people think are arabian or middle eastern, and often is mistaken for black, or hispanic. so my question is, since we dont have any of the features, or look like anyone else in our family, could our traits come way further back then everyone else in our familys?
