Seven Firefighters Become Fathers Within Months Of Each Other

What are the odds that seven firefighters at the same department become fathers within months of each other?  At Glenpool Fire Department in Oklahoma . . . you don't want to take that bet.  In just one year, seven out of the department’s 20 firefighters have welcomed babies . . . and they’re all one big happy family.

“This is our normal — this is our fire family,” says one of the firefighters’ wives Sarah Hutchinson.  All seven fathers and their babies lined up for a group photo at the station.  The pack waited until the last baby to be born just four weeks ago to take the photo.  Of the clan are five girls and two boys, the oldest being 15-months.

Sarah notes that the families also happen to be really good friends.  “Glenpool is not the biggest town; we only have one fire station.  I couldn’t survive without the other fire wives,” she says.  Firefighter Mick Whitney explains all the families hang out and go fishing.  “We all just happen to have kids right under a year.  It’s a pretty neat deal.”
