Happy birthday to the lovely Sofia Vergara! She is best known for winning people over with her charming Columbian accent and humor as Gloria Pritchett in ABC’s Modern Family, but today the actress is celebrating her 41st birthday!

Vergara’s Modern Family co-star and friend, Erin Stonestreet, even sent the birthday girl a special, witty message on Twitter!

“Happy birthday to you @SofiaVergara! Can’t wait to stare at your (eyes) for another year! Love u,” he tweeted.

The ABC network family posted their love for Sofia on the Modern Familyhomepage in a page called, “15 Reasons Why We Love Gloria.” Fans of the show can check out funny Gloria moments from the show.

Last year, TheCelebrityCafe.com reported about how Sofia got engaged to fiancé Nick Loeb on her 40th birthday. Hopefully she is celebrating with her family and loved ones this year as well!

Sofia’s upcoming projects include Smurfs 2, where she will be starring alongside the blue cast as Odile Anjelou. It hits the big screen on July 31 of this year!
