I t’s pretty common that siblings have to share things, but in this case a sister and a brother have to share the most special event in their lives - their birthdays! When asked what it’s like to share a birthday with a sibling, older sister Chloe Stone smiled and said, “It’s horrible. I have to share everything with him.” Chloe, who turned 14 years old on April 19, 2020 also had to share the same birthday drive-by parade with her younger brother Cail, who turned 12 years old on the very same day. Cail’s response to the question was, “It’s fun because we both get the glory.” Chloe and Cail’s mom, Sarah Stone, said of the shared birthdays, “It was great when they were little.” Sarah also shared a cute story. “They were born an hour-and-a half apart on the same day, but two years apart. The hospital actually tried to deliver Cail at the same time as Chloe, but the OR was full so they couldn’t get me in to deliver them at the same time.
