Alison Sweeney Got A Special Birthday Wake-Up Call — From Her Kids!

Facing a birthday can be whole lot easier when you get an awesome phone call first thing in the morning to get you on the right track — and that happened for Days of Our Lives (DOOL) star, Alison Sweeney.

The popular actress celebrated her birthday yesterday, and her kids called to wish their famous mom a very Happy Birthday. The actress shared a screen capture to her Instagram account (see below) to mark the occasion. Cause we know nothing is really real until it appears in social media.

Fans are anxiously awaiting Sweeney’s arrival back on DAYS, since nothing is ever safe with Sami around. Will she be the one to finally get through to Lucas (Bryan Dattilo) and help him get back on the road to recovery? Lucas and Sami have a rich history — it will be fun to see them back in each other’s orbit.

Sweeney has been keeping busy during her time away from Salem shooting films for her Murder, She Baked franchise for the Hallmark channel.
