You are a good man, an incredible parent and the greatest gift I have ever received.
I feel very lucky and very privileged to have had such a wonderful father growing up and, on your special day, I just want you to know how truly grateful I am for you.
I wanted to get something extraordinary and particularly special for a cousin who is more like a sister to me, but then I realized something: You already have all of that in me!
I hope your birthday is as wonderful and as meaningful as you are to me, my dear! Wishing a very happy birthday to you!
We sure did have some great times together as kids, but we have even better times now that we’re older! I guess a lot of things get better on their own and improve with age!
When you entered the world one year ago, you changed my life as I knew it.
Until you arrived, I never knew how strong the love of a mother could be, and the emotion that comes with being a parent. You are a part of me and I will cherish you with all my heart forever.
I can’t imagine there’s a better, kinder, or more caring boyfriend out there than you who can touch someone’s heart in the same way that you’ve touched mine. You truly are one-of-a-kind, my love.
I’m sending you lots of kisses and sweet wishes on your special day today.
