At left is a photo taken by Maren's first grade teacher of Maren and some of her classmates on Valentine's Day. Note Maren's considerable height compared to her peers. Is this the product of her mother's genes or her father's? Maren's long, lean build would indicate she takes after her 6'4" dad, but don't discount the dominance of the Stocking genes. I towered above the kids in my class for years due to some weird accelerated growth pattern, then watched everyone else pass me up after 5th grade.
So, play "Who Has the Dominant Genes?" Make your wagers... and wait another ten years to find out the winner.

10 years?? If Maren inheirited the Stocking genes, we should know in the next 3-4 years--WHEN SHE HAS HER PUBERTY GROWTH SPURT
Ugh. This is one instance where I'm hoping that she DOESN'T have the Stocking genes.
