The top birthday messages to write in your son's card
For many parents, their children are their precious gift. No matter how old your son gets, he’ll always be your baby, and there's no better day to show him how much he means to you than on his birthday.
Sure, you can buy him thoughtful gifts or even take him on a family trip, but nothing beats penning a special birthday message for your son. Expressing your feelings through written words is a priceless gesture that will likely leave a lasting impact.
Need some inspiration? You’ve come to the right place. We’ve compiled a robust list of some of the best birthday wishes for sons that will make him smile. Whether he’s a teen or a grown adult with children of his own, this round-up has got you covered.
From short and sweet to funny and meaningful, these messages will speak to your son’s individuality and unique personality. For example, if he has a good sense of humour and loves telling dad jokes, he'll love the punny lines here, or if he is more on the sentimental side, check out the birthday blessings we've included.
Don’t want to use these birthday wishes verbatim? No problem. Let them spark your creativity to craft your own message and tailor it accordingly. Be sure to share your birthday wishes in the way that your son will value the most. That might be inside a birthday card, sent as a text message or maybe even posted as a caption on Instagram. After all, you know your son best and all that matters is that he receives it.
