Now me (Christine):

Forgive me if this has been discussed before, but I have been 
searching the archives and cannot find it.  (Maybe I just don't know 
how to look correctly.)  Anyway, a friend of mine pointed out to me 
yesterday that the Harry/Ginny ship GREATLY resembles James/Lily.  
Harry looks like his father except he has Lily's green eyes.  Ginny 
resembles Lily (red hair-not too common, especially since she's not 
related to the Weasleys.)  We know James had hazel eyes, so if Ginny 
had hazel eyes, the resemblance between the two couples would be 
complete.  Does anyone know what color eyes Ginny has?  How 
interesting it would be if she had hazel eyes.......
