On your special day, I wanted to remind you of all your wonderful attributes, but there are simply too many to list! The main one, though, has to be that you are a really great friend!
An inspirational figure, a heart-touching friend, and a wonderful person in general - there are so many reasons for why you are such a special person to me!
I’m wishing you the extraordinary birthday that you so deserve, my dear! I hope you have a good one!
On your special day this year, I think it’s only right that you deserve an award for putting up with me as your coworker for the duration that you’ve worked here! That takes strength!
