January 18 holds a very special place in one family's hearts. Not only is it Amy's birthday, but it's also her mother's birthday. Together, the mother-daughter duo has enjoyed a lifetime of shared birthday celebrations, exchanged gifts and a greater sense of female bonding. So, when Amy learned she was pregnant with a baby girl of her own, she thought, 'How great would that be to experience that myself?'"
And now, her wish has come true. That's right — three generations of girls who share the exact same birthday on January 18. Doctors say the odds of this happening are more than 130,00 to 1. Emily, a mother and blogger who shares her birthday with her daughter, writes, "Even to this day, I wouldn’t necessarily call myself someone who loves to share her stuff, and if given a chance 8 years ago, probably would have liked to have a little bit more distance between our birthdays. But honestly, I genuinely enjoy sharing my birthday with my daughter, and being able to celebrate her life has become the greatest birthday gift I get to give myself every year."
Some call it a coincidence, but Amy and her family believes this is a true blessing from God. For nine years, Amy and her husband struggled with infertility. Their newborn baby girl, aptly named Miracle Joy, is their fourth child after they adopted two.
