DD is from a very remote Mayan area. We have no birthfamily info but assume she is Maya based on where she is from, her very dark skin, very straight hair and slightly almond shaped eyes. People frequently think she and our Vietnamese DS are bio siblings despite the almond shape of his eyes being much more pronounced and her skin being much, much darker. There is an older gentleman in our town whose late wife was Thai. Everytime he sees her he remarks on how he can't believe she isn't Thai and comments on how much he thinks she looks like their children did when they were young.
