from The Gisborne Herald....Family hat-trickA rare generational coincidence has a Gisborne family celebrating.10:34AM — Tuesday, 23 February 2016 Photograph: Paul Rickard/The Gisborne Herald.GISBORNE grandfather John Morrell (not pictured) jokes he is going to have to rotate birthday present giving for wife Chris Morrell (left), daughter Sara Wilson (right) and now, young Willow Wilson, through three-year cycles. Chris, Sarah and Willow were all born on February 21st.
Willow, who arrived on Sunday, is the most recent of the family triangle. Chris Morrell, who works in Gisborne Hospital's maternity ward and was at the birth, said she was emotional yesterday.
“Willow's beautiful,” she said of the her third grandchild.
This generational coincidence is rare but there are several accounts of it happening in other parts of the world. A British betting agency reported the odds of a baby girl being born on the same day as her mother and grandmother at more than 133,000 to one.
Mr Morrell is a betting man and said he wished he had put $5 on it.http://gisborneherald.co.nz/localnews/2197378-135/family-hat-trick
