Let's make this birthday one to remember.

88 years old (Born on December 17, 1936)

Happy Birthday, Pope Francis! May your day be filled with joy brighter than the Vatican's Christmas tree and laughter louder than St. Peter’s bells ringing at noon. Your humble acts of kindness—washing prisoners' feet, embracing those in need, or cruising around Rome in a modest Fiat instead of luxury limos—continue to inspire us all.

Your recent efforts promoting peace worldwide remind everyone that compassion never goes out of style—even if white robes might occasionally get tricky during spaghetti dinners! Here's wishing you another year full of meaningful moments (and perhaps fewer windy days challenging your papal hat). Happy birthday!
