For my grandmother's 97th birthday, we gave her a card with a race car on it that said "Hey! You're 7!". We used a Sharpie marker to add a 9 before the 7.
My sister-in-law got a Scooby Doo card calling her a "grooovy birthday girl" for her 32nd birthday.
I take digital pictures of my boys "signing" the cards and put the pictures inside the cards before mailing them. x:-)
But you know, I thought the man was a real sweetie to go to that much effort for his wife. Most don't.
Just don't tell them why the wheels on the skateboard are screwed up!
