My son, you’re my greatest achievement in life, and everyday you make me proud to be your mother. Today I wish you a happy birthday and once more I say:
Son, not only are you another year older, but today you also reach a very special milestone in your life.
I have to tell you, I am so incredibly proud of all your achievements so far, and I am so very proud to be your father. You have become a truly great man over the past 18 years.
May your adult years ahead bring you all that you deserve, son. Wishing you a very happy 18th birthday from dad.
