Come to think of it, I didn't know the word "heritage" even applied to us for the longest time.

It seems like this is only a recent thing, within the last couple generations. Before then, people downplayed their "ethnic side" and boosted their Anglo or White ancestry.

I don't deny at all my spanish heritage but he's relatively ancient (19th century); so i feel more concerned by my french part. Anyway i'm proud of all my ancestors.

You should realistically identify most with the culture you grew up with, a DNA test shouldn't change how we view ourselves aside from the mere curiosity aspect of it. There is probably nothing actually tying you to Spain in the modern day so I see no reason why you should have to identify with it in any way if you don't want to, but this is just my view on these matters.
