She's now given birth on the seventh day of the seventh month four times — meaning all four children share the same July birthday.

The aspiring neonatal nurse gave birth to her first child, Kewan, on July 7th, 2019. She was shocked when it happened again with her second child, Na'Zaiyla, two years later.
When she called her mother, LaKesha Harrison, on July 7, 2022, to say she was in labor with her third child, Khalan, her mother didn't believe her.

'I was overwhelmed and anxious when going into labor because I couldn't imagine having three babies born on the same day. They were delivered naturally, no induction or C-section,' Drake told VVNG.

'I knew that it was a sign that these are my angel babies once I discovered they all have a birthmark on their right leg as well,' Nauzhae said.
Then, on July 7th of this year, Drake gave birth to her fourth child, Kailowa.

'Everyone has told me to go and play the lottery,' Drake said.
She's in 7th Heaven.
This isn't the first time a birthing miracle has happened.
A 66-year-old German woman gave birth to her 10th baby without the help of in vitro fertilization.
With all odds against her, the woman — already a mom of nine — underwent a cesarean section back in March. Her little baby boy, named Philipp, weighed in at 7 pounds, 13 ounces.
Both mom and baby are happy and healthy.

‘The luckiest man in the world.' WWII veteran ‘Papa Jake' dies at 102
Jake Larson, a World War II veteran who stormed Omaha Beach on D-Day, was known to his family and friends as 'Papa Jake,' a good-natured grandfather and avid story teller. But thanks to a hugely popular social media presence, Larson's stories and optimism were shared online with millions of fans and followers. Larson died July 17 at the age of 102, according to his social media accounts, managed by his granddaughter McKaela Larson. 'Please know, he went peacefully and was even cracking jokes till the very end,' she said in the post. Larson's internet fame started with the COVID-19 pandemic. Because of self-isolation efforts, McKaela, a cruise ship dancer, spent a great deal of her time in the family's Martinez, Calif., home with her grandfather. That's when she created his TikTok account, according to family members. It became hugely popular. The TikTok account, @storytimewithpapajake, amassed more than 1 million followers and more than 11 million likes. His large following meant Larson's stories were shared worldwide. In addition to a massive online following, he recently won an Emmy for an interview about the anniversary of D-Day with CNN. Last July, he was invited on stage at a Zac Brown concert at the Oakland Coliseum. In November, he visited Disneyland for the first time, where he was named an Honorary Citizen. On his TikTok account, Larson often described himself as the luckiest man in the world. The stories he told on the account ranged from the frightening to the hopeful. He recounted climbing off of the ramp of the boat that dropped him off on Omaha Beach, June 6, 1944, and watching his fellow troops step in land mines while trying to avoid German machine-gun fire. 'I was more afraid of stepping on a mine than I was of the gunfire coming at us,' he said in a 2022 post. In another TikTok post, Larson is asked for the best advice he ever received. 'Don't ever give up,' he said. 'Always do the best you can in life.' The National WWII Museum estimates that there were only 66,143 alive of the 16.4 million Americans who served in World War II as of 2024. Family members described Larson as an infinitely compassionate and optimistic soul who was always 'quick to tell you how much he loves you,' his granddaughter Krista Paulson said in an interview with The Times. His grandkids were eager to recall memories and anecdotes about their Papa Jake. Many commenters on Larson's account thanked his family for sharing him with them. 'He made people feel like they were a part of his family,' Paulson said. 'It's crazy to just share him ... to be able to say that he was ours, but so proud to know that everyone wanted to be a part of his life.' On his TikTok page, Larson often shared stories about his time in the U.S. Army, where he was a staff sergeant. But many of his grandkids didn't hear these stories growing up. 'He wasn't comfortable talking about it,' his grandson Mike Larson said. 'Because, let's be honest, back in his day, no one talked about PTSD ... Once he started opening up, I think it helped him.' Mike Larson said he believed his grandfather's presence on TikTok allowed other veterans to accept that there is a life after their military service. He recounted a time at Disneyland, when a man serving in the Marine Corps hovered around Jake and his family, who were preparing for a photo shoot. Mike Larson said he recognized that the man was in the service and offered to introduce him to his grandfather. After a hearty conversation, the man reached out his hand, and Larson immediately pulled him into a big hug. Mike said he saw tears streaming down the Marine's face. 'People don't realize that, you never know what that guy was going through,' Mike said, breaking down in tears. 'That one conversation could've saved that guy's life.' Larson's online presence also means that his family can return to his posts and relive his stories and warmth documented in hundreds of videos. Paulson said that when the family returned from the hospital after Larson's death, she heard her oldest child crying on the couch. He had been rewatching Larson's TikTok videos. 'I think you can't sum it up in any other way,' Mike said. 'He was the luckiest man alive.'

Where to Dine with Babies, and Other Reader Questions
Well, well, well, if it isn't my favorite thing to do. Let's answer some reader questions, my friends! I'll be doing these on a monthly basis, giving my new co-writer, Luke, a much-needed break from scouring the city for dollar slices, tofu hot dogs and brain tacos. As for the rest of you, please keep the reader questions coming! I want your restaurant requests, the more specific the better, and I'll take them in a few forms: via email at wheretoeat@ as a submission in this form, and on my Instagram, where I'll post story prompts for you. This week, I'll dive into questions from readers seeking an actually good German restaurant, a taste of Brooklyn 2000s nostalgia, and a restaurant where parents can pridefully roll in with strollers. Are there any good German restaurants left in New York City? Most are mediocre at best and expensive for what they serve. — Mason There sure are, and Zum Stamtisch, a beloved institution since 1972, is one of them. The room alone — carpeted, paneled with dark wood and decorated with antique steins and taxidermy — felt to me as if it were airlifted straight from Heidelberg to Glendale, Queens. In keeping with tradition, you should get a steering wheel-size pretzel, served warm with two types of mustard and biting horseradish sauce, and a wurstplatte with housemade smoked wursts and kraut (a steal, by the way, at $20). My favorite bite, I was surprised to find, is an American invention: the bratburger. It's a delightful little sandwich served on a toasted English muffin with a taut, springy bratwurst patty and two thick slices of ham under a blanket of melted Swiss cheese. 69-46 Myrtle Avenue (70th Street), Glendale Want all of The Times?

Stephen Curry reveals his true feelings on Kendrick Lamar's 'Not Like Us' and relationship with Drake
Stephen Curry is opening up about the viral moment he had when he shared his true feelings about Kendrick Lamar's diss track "Not Like Us." In a conversation with Complex's 360 with Speedy, the Golden State Warriors star spoke about his relationship with Drake and expanded on his viral moment at the 2024 Paris Olympics when he was frustrated with "Not Like Us" playing. "We go way back, though, and it's actually kind of a family thing, too," Curry shared about how his friendship with Drake began. The four-time NBA champion shared that through his wife, Ayesha Curry, who hails from Toronto like Drake, has a cousin who is from the city as well. It's unclear the nature of Ayesha's cousin's relationship with Drake, but there is some kind of familial connection as Steph has continued to cultivate a relationship with the rapper throughout the years. In addition to sharing how he has a relationship with Drake, Curry explained what he felt in the moment when he got annoyed at "Not Like Us" playing. "Everywhere we went, it's all I heard, and the fact that they know who I was with," Curry added. "...But I was like, I got sick of it at a certain point. And it was funny, the cameras caught me because that was from the soul." Despite Curry's feelings about the overload of plays "Not Like Us" got last summer, the song has been cemented into rap and Grammy history as the first diss track to win multiple golden gramophones. "Not Like Us" won Best Music Video, Best Rap Song, Best Rap Performance, Song Of The Year, and Record Of The Year at the 2025 Grammy Awards ceremony.
