Every child is a precious gift.. and yes - they'll be like your DH in more ways than one I'm sure! Try not to feel down about it.
It reminds me of a conversation I had with friend. For years the going joke was that I wanted to find a black man and have chocolate babies! This friend said to me, very seriously, that the babies wouldn't look like me, and I wouldnt' love them as much! WTF??! I was shocked!
Anyway... I ended up marrying an asian! hehe. And my son doesn't really look like me.. I guess there are some things that are like me (the bits that make him less asian.. hehe.. but nothing specific) but he couldn't be a more loved little man, and it doesn't worry me a bit that he doesn't look like "my" son.
I guess what I'm saying is even biological children don't necessarily look like one or both of the parents, so don't feel too badly about it. There's plenty more things for kids to inherit than what is passed on through genes.
Good luck with your TTCing, I hope it's successful for you!
