She was going through her family history when she discovered it.

She had been building her online family tree for several months. She had interviewed her parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, siblings, cousins, as many as possible. Then she went through every scrapbook she could find, she spent hours gathering as much relevant information as possible, including names, dates, and places. This included going through old letters, certificates and any informative documents she could find.

Then, out of the blue, she found it!

Her great-grandmother was exactly twenty one when she gave birth to her grandmother. Her grandmother was exactly twenty one when she gave birth to her mother, and her mother was exactly twenty one when she gave birth to her. What a coincidence!

Amazingly, despite all the hours of research she had put in, these astounding facts did not come to light until late that very evening.

She was now twenty one, almost twenty two.

She was lying in bed and thinking about this, feeling absolutely exhausted… but she wasn’t pregnant!
