You are joy personified. May you only know such joy, and may I add to it. Happy birthday.

You may be one year older, but age does not define you. Your love, warmth and caring are what make the "you" in you. It also makes you my BFF. Happy birthday.


Happy birthday to my truest and best friend. Nobody compares to you.
