What you always get on your birthday (5)

I believe the answer is:

older

(Other definitions for older that I've seen before include "Of greater age (O, not E)" , "more history" , "More ancient" , "Increasingly mature" , "More advanced in point of time" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
