Sweet Tea

My smaller niece has the coloring of fire and English roses - yet, as olive and as dark as I am, our relation comes in a magical feaure.

Upon comparison while visiting, my brother, sister-in-law, and elder niece ageed, in looking at us.  I have the same light brown, rimmed-with-grey eyes as the wee one.  We have iced tea eyes.

I used to wish my brown were much darker, but X helped teach me to reconsider that opinion.  Now, of course, I am delighted to have my light, and grey-rimmed, color.
