My niece was born in Germany a little over a year later. On one of my visits to them in England when my niece was around 3, I took a photo and framed it for my grandmother. When I gave it to her, she smiled and said, “Oy, a little shiksa [a gentile girl or woman].” (Dale’s husband wasn’t Jewish.) I said, “But, Grandma, don’t they say the mother’s religion determines the religion of the child?”
