Luong Thi Ha, 29, has attracted much attention online after sharing photos of her marriage certificate and her first son's birth certificate. The documents show that all three family members share the same birth date, June 25.

Ha and Hoang Trung Hieu, 29, lived in Thuan Chau district in Son La, with their homes 15 kilometers apart. The couple met in 2015 while they were university students.

One day, when helping their relatives deliver and receive parcels, they became friends. Hieu took the initiative and sent messages to the girl. Though Ha ignored his messages and refused to meet, Hieu did not give up.

Thanks to gallant acts on a rainy day, Hieu successfully conquered the heart of the girl he loves. “It was late at night. I complained that I was hungry and wanted some boiled corn to warm me up. Forty minutes later, he called and told me to come to the gate to pick something up. Seeing him in a raincoat, carrying two boiled corns and a cup of warm tea, I shed tears,” she recalled.

“After that, I texted him, 'Shall we be a couple?’ And so we became one," Ha recounted.

After one month of dating, they asked each other about their birthdays and realized that they have the same day and month of birth.

On their wedding day, Ha's mother and her mother-in-law jokingly commented: "We have good timing." 

At the marriage registry, the local official said after checking their ID cards multiple times: "You two must be very excellent finding each other."

Their wedding ceremony was held in 2020 and Ha gave birth to a son in June 2021. The day their child was born, they shared a chuckle.

Ha said her due date was initially set for June 22, 2021, but labor didn't start by then. On the morning of June 24, she went to the hospital for a checkup and was advised that her amniotic fluid was low and she needed a Caesarean section.

The couple then thought that their son would be born on the same day. But surprisingly, doctors said it would be better to conduct the surgery early the next morning on June 25.

“Our son decided that he needed to wait one day and come on June 25 to have the same birthday as his parents,” Ha said.
