3 Generations, 3 Boys, All Born May 11
These aren’t state lottery-like odds, but still. For three generations, one family has welcomed a baby boy into the world every 24 years on May 11.
This year, baby Brody became the latest Adams baby to have a May 11 birthday. He joins his dad Jonathan and his grandfather Kent.
The odds are … one in
133,225 for the birth of a male baby in the same family with exactly 24 years between them. And, really, it’s just kind of luck, since all were spontaneous births (no inductions, etc.)
From the Chattanooga Times Free Press:
My uoingest child was born on May 11. Must be a popular day to be born.
That made me smile. Especially viewing each new son as the dad’s birthday present. Very cool perspective.
