Sometimes, life throws us a sign that somebody is right for us.
In the case of Caitlin and Tom Perkins, of Dirranbandi, Queensland, that sign was the fact that they shared the same exact birthday. They didn’t plan on falling for each other, but it was a little ironic that they were both born on August 16, 1986. Perhaps it was written in the stars.
Exactly 30 years later, another surprising coincidence came along on their journey of life.
The couple welcomed their new daughter, Lucy Marie Perkins, on their 30th birthday Tuesday, August 16.
According to Cailtin’s obstetrician, Dr. Brad Robinson, the family’s shared birthday is a one in 48 million chance happening. In a Facebook post, the couple’s doctor notes how bizzare this coincidence can be.
Originally, Mom wasn’t expected to deliver for at least another week, according to The Daily Mail reported, but Robinson said Caitlin went into labor spontaneously. Seven-pound Lucy was born healthy at 39 weeks and in the future, this family will be having huge birthdays because there’s a lot to celebrate.
Now this is just weird! Is this an example of fate or just a case of weird coincidences? Tell us your thoughts in the comments and please SHARE with friends and family.
