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!
Thank you for always being there all throughout our childhood, for being someone I could love, someone I could annoy, and someone I could consistently rely on!
To be honest not much has changed over all these years; you are still all of those things and more!
Happy birthday to a family member I’d actually choose to be around even if we weren’t related!
It’s true that you don’t get to pick your family, but even if you weren’t the close sister-like cousin to me that you are you’d still be my best friend!
My darling cousin, congratulations on yet another incredible year!
I’m a strong believer that blood is thicker than water, and particularly in our case, it couldn’t be any more accurate! Our bond is so close, more likened to that of sisters, and I wouldn’t change that for the world.
Have a truly wonderful birthday, my dear! You deserve it more than anyone!
