What color eyes your wife have? Blue it’s 50/50.
Brown it’s more 75 brown/green/hazel 25 blue.
Rereading it I assume she has blue. So 50/50 your kids will.

I have blue, my wife has brown. We have 6 kids. 3 have brown eyes, and 3 have blue.

But if your mom had brown she could still have held the recessive blue as could
