"Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband @SenJohnMcCain," tweeted Cindy McCain on Tuesday, with an image of a beach with hearts carved into the sand. "You have kept me laughing for 37 years."
Meghan McCain, 32, tweeted, "Everyone help me wish my wonderful father @SenJohnMcCain a very happy birthday! I love you with all my heart, Dad!"
Sen. McCain also posted a birthday greeting video, writing, "Thank you to our Iranian American friends from #Arizona for the birthday wishes!"
