My daughter is mixed race, her dad is mixed race (Eastern European - East African and was seen as "white" in Africa but is "brown" in Australia), I am anglo Australian. She came out with her dads colouring - brown skin, brown eyed, dark haired...but she looks like me if you can see past her colouring. Same jaw line, same eye shape and asymmetry. Is an interesting one - I have been called her grandmother, her nanny and the response at my first Maternal Heath appointment was "I didn't expect you with that surname" (my daughter has her dads African name). Whilst not intentionally racist, the level of ignorance is still surprising though it really shouldn't be. She has a number of mixed race friends (one has a chinese grand parent, another a south american dad as egs) so hopefully as she grows she will find her tribe and "fit" somewhere and be valued for who she is not just what she does (or doesn't) look like.
