Today's my birthday--mon anniversaire. The big number this year is 41 . . . not quite as traumatic as the big 4-0h of le 3 octobre 2007. Of course, it's only fitting to teach some French birthday vocabulary on this auspicious occasion. Here are a few useful expressions you can use in a French birthday card:
Bon Anniversaire - Happy Birthday
Joyeux Anniversaire - Happy Birthday
À - to
Pour - for
De - from
Mon cher ______ - My dear (insert boy's name)
Ma chère ______ - My dear (insert girl's name)
Je pense à toi. - I'm thinking of you
Le meilleur reste à venir. - The best is yet to come.

Joyeux Anniversaire Diane!!!
Alors, toi aussi, tu es une BALANCE... I will turn 54 on October 14 (Election Day in Canada! Duh!)... You're still sooooo young my friend!!! Wait until you reach your 50s!
Although it isn't so bad... Numbers don't mean anything anymore to me... In my head, I am 17 going on 16!!!
Laisse-toi gâter comme il se doit en ce beau jour d'anniversaire!!!
Lyne
Je te souhaite un très joyeux anniversaire, Diane. Et beaucoup de bonnes choses pour cette belle journée.
PS : mon fils aussi est balance, il aura 15 ans le 15 octobre !
Yay for all the "Balances" (That's Libra for all you anglophones!)
Thanks for your well wishes Lyne & Isabelle :-)
Bon aniversaire, Diane. Hope you have a very good one. -Roy
Merci, Roy :-)
