I do not have children.

But I do have a sister who is much older, and looks nothing like me. Brown hair, green eyes. I have the blonde/blue going.

But I have a nephew and it was creepy freaky weird how he looked like me as a child.
And still does. (If I were a big man and a cop)

I can't imagine how strange that must be for a parent.

My oldest looks a lot like my dad. 2nd son looked more like my husband when he was small, now I can see more of me in him though. Daughter looks a lot like one of husband's sisters, right down to some of her mannerisms. I find that so fascinating, because it isn't something she has picked up by being around her, we don't see her very often. Youngest son got his great-grandpa's ears and resembles him quite a bit.
