don't bother about your height too much..
it doesn't matter,my husband is 6'1
boys 6'2
5'7
daughter 5'4
it's whats inside that counts
I have the same thing going on, all family member are 6 feet and over, I have one daughter and granddaughter both 5'11'' and yet I'm only 5'3''. I call myself the short twig on the family tree, and I was told years ago I'm the same height as a grandmother I who died before I was born. You may not know all your relatives, or the stories you heard and that were passed down didn't mention their height as if they were 5'6'' that would have been unremarkable. The gene pool is a large one and you are just one tadpole in it. Nothing to worry about. It happens.
