Blair commented on the post, writing a heartfelt reply to Gellar -- whom she called \"Scarah\" -- which began, \"You have loved me more than any friend here.\"

The \"Legally Blonde\" actress called Gellar a \"loyal and funny and supreme person,\" joking that her husband, Freddie Prinze Jr., is a \"great guy\" but doesn't hold a candle to his wife.

Blair called this birthday \"majorly exciting\" for her, though she admitted, \"These are the moments I wish you were here. Right here. To marvel at the simple love [w]e have.\"

\"I cannot wait to take a girls trip to celebrate all my half a century wisdom!\" she added.
