Advice
Birthdays are all about wishes, from the ones you make when you blow out your candles (please, no more writing on the walls with crayons, kids) to the ones you lovingly write in birthday cards to your friends and family. If religion and prayer are important elements in your life, these 70 Christian birthday wishes and blessings are perfect for a friend, sister, brother, mother, in-laws, or anyone else in your life.
Writing a birthday card with a personal touch, like a religious message, is a wonderful way to show your loved ones you care — though we all know our kids hardly read the card when they’re looking for dollar bills! Even though birthdays come once a year, you can remember the day year-round by printing your photos of grandma’s birthday in a Classic Photo Book or your son’s sixth birthday party on Canvas Wall Tiles. And if you’re a sentimental person who loves to display their everyday moments — in addition to your special occasions — print 30 of your favorite memories from each month in Monthbooks.
