Some things never change. For many, that includes the tradition of getting and receiving birthday cards. While younger folks might not use them as much, or choose to go with digital versions, the love that comes from a physical card is one that grandmas especially adore. This is something, I think, we can all be grateful for — it’s certainly something that Travis Akers appreciates. He reveals that, even though he’s an adult, he can still count on his grandmother to send him a special card every single year.
“My 90+ year old grandmother still sends a birthday card every year with $20 and a note that says, ‘get some chicken nuggets.’ I’m 42 now,” Travis shares in a sweet post on social media. “These cards are everything.”
It’s no wonder that these sweet, and hilariously specific, birthday cards never fail to brighten Travis’ day. This is the kind of sweet gift that is sure to be the highlight of anyone’s birthday. In fact, you’ll find lots of heartwarming birthday cards from other grandmas that have been shared on social media.

In a popular post, a Reddit user named Tttoille shares that their grandma has been making them birthday cards for years. Without fail, they always make them feel loved. Although they appreciate every single card they’ve gotten over the years, they admit that the one below meant the most.
Whether a card is handmade or bought from the store, there really is something oh-so special about them. They’re a simple way to show someone that you thought of them. Plus, cards are a great way for a loved one to keep a piece of you with them for years to come. How cool is that?
