Best friend is like a brother. You’re the person who would do anything for his friends, even sacrificing himself for them. You’re always thinking about how to make me happy, even if it means giving up your happiness. That’s why I love you so much. You’re so understanding and supportive; i never want to lose that part of our friendship. No one else can make me laugh as hard as you can, no matter how bad things are going. Today, everything brightens up when I hear your voice. I wish you a fantastic birthday, and always remember that I love you. From the first day we met, I knew we would be friends forever. You’ve been there for me through all the good and bad times, and I’ll never forget how much you mean to me. I know you’ll have a fantastic year ahead of you, and I want to thank you for being such a great friend over the years. Happy birthday. I want to take this opportunity to tell you how important you are to me and how lucky I am to have someone like you in my life. We’ve been through a lot together, but we always come back stronger no matter what happens. Thank you for being such a fantastic friend and role model. You’re one of the best people I know. Have and enjoy your day, dear. I know you’re probably not expecting to hear from me today, but I just couldn’t let your birthday pass without telling you how special you are. You’ve been one of my closest friends for as long as I can remember, and I’m so glad we’re still here together. You’ve always been there for me through the good and bad times. I’m so grateful that we can count on each other, and I’m so thankful that God brought us together because without you in my life, it would be so much less fun. Here are a few things about you that I love: your sense of humor, your willingness to try new things, and your ability to always be there for me no matter what time of day or night. Happy birthday, buddy.
Happy birthday Sir, May your days be filled with thousands of sweet surprises, the grace of God will saturate your life. It's going to be your best year yet, I celebrate and Honor you. HAPPY BIRTHDAY NMIS
