She first shared a current photo of the birthday lady, captioning it with: "This beautiful human," before taking it all the way back to seemingly the beginning of their decades-long friendship.
"It's her BIRTHDAY," she then wrote in another photo, sharing a black and white throwback picture of the two posing cheek to cheek, both of their hair styled with thick bangs swept across their foreheads, reminiscent of those commonly favored throughout the 1980s.

"Make a wish for her," she added.
