Selena Gomez's dad sent her a birthday greeting with this lovely picture and these sweet words: “I love the way you are growing, but also that you have the heart of a child. Happy birthday, beautiful! May God fill you with blessings and take care of you!”

When Selena was little, Ricardo Gomez and Mandy Teefey decided to separate. Each of them began a new life a few years after. The songstress’ mother married Brian Teefey in 2006 and had a little daughter named Gracie Elliot, 6. Meanwhile, Ricardo took a new chance in love with Sara Gomez and they both share Marcus, 11, and Victoria, 5.

In this photo, Selena spends some time with her half-siblings, with whom she has a cordial relationship.
