Another year older, another year wiser... Some of us hate hearing that. But it's so true! With age comes wisdom. And with a birthday comes cake and presents! (What could possibly be wrong with that?)
Whether it's your birthday or someone else's, keep in mind the joyous occasion that it celebrates: a new life brought forth by a birth. It's the most beautiful miracle of all, a true cause for celebration.
So forget about counting the candles you have to blow out. Start counting your blessings and simply look forward to another year filled with love and happiness (and more cake and presents!).

Birthday themes vary by age and can incorporate anything you wish: the movies, your hobbies, favorite characters, music, etc. Here are some of the most popular birthday themes for various age groups...
