Well, I look like my mother in the face (so much so, that strangers have walked up to me and asked if I am her daughter), but don't have her body shape. My temperament is more like my dad's (he is askeered of spiders, too! lol ...). His philosophy is 'walk softly and carry a big stick'. I got my mother's head for figures and logic, and my dad's ease with nature and all things workshop-related. :D I don't know where I got my fear of housework, as they are both clean freaks!
