Hi John,
To see how to do this and just about everything else you might want to do with dates in Word, check out my Word Date Calculation
Tutorial, at:

or

In particular, look at second field under the item titled 'Interactively Calculate A Persons Age'. That field calculates the age to
the nearest year, month and day. For what you've described, you can change the output expression to:
"The person's age is {={Years}+{={Months}5}} years}."
Do read the document's introductory material.
