South Carolina mom and baby share ‘Leap Day’ birthday: ‘She will be special’

Forty years ago, North Carolina mother Kai Sun was born on Leap Day, the 29th day in the month of February every four calendar years. Now, Sun has given birth to a baby girl of her own, also born on Leap Day.

“My husband and I were just saying how cool it would be if she were born on the same day as my birthday, and now, it happened,” Sun told Good Morning America Thursday morning after they welcomed their third child into the world.

Kai Sun’s daughter, Chloe Paik, was born at 5:12 am at Duke University Hospital, where Kai Sun also works. “She was breathing fast initially when she was born so they took her to the nursery for a little bit to see the pediatrician but everything checked out and she’s peacefully sleeping,” Sun said.

Not only was Paik born on the same date as her mother, but she is also a “rainbow baby” for her family. Almost exactly one year ago, Sun suffered a miscarriage. “We had a miscarriage almost exactly a year ago and so that makes her [Chloe] more special,” Sun said.

Dear Reader,

Every day in America, more than 2,800 preborn babies lose their lives to abortion.

That number should break our hearts and move us to action.

Ending this tragedy requires daily commitment from people like you who refuse to stay silent.

Millions read Live Action News each month — imagine the impact if each of us took a stand for life 365 days a year.

Right now, we’re urgently seeking 500 new Life Defenders (monthly donors) to join us before the end of October. And thanks to a generous $250,000 matching grant, your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to help save lives and build a culture that protects the preborn.

Together, we can end abortion and create a future where every child is cherished and every mother is supported.

Sun stated that during her pregnancy with her daughter, a few concerning things happened. “There was some abnormal finding on the initial ultrasound that we were nervous about. And then I had COVID. And I fell on my belly in [my] third trimester. There are just some small things that happened that made us a little nervous but everything turned out well at the end.”

When asked if she wanted her daughter to know anything about her special birthday, Sun said, “I just want Chloe to know that she was born on a special day and that she will be special and that we all love her.” 

Sun’s other children’s names are Charis, age five, and Caleb, age three. Sun explains that for her birthday this year, she’s just excited to bring Chloe home to celebrate with her other siblings — and there will definitely be cake!
