Birthdays do not revolve only around cakes and candles. Not really. Whenever it is the birthday of your husband, it turns into something else. A bit of a mini time capsule. A day that you can tell him really how much love you both have for each other, and maybe it’s also a day for you to be reminded.
Nonetheless, sometimes just “Happy Birthday” does not satisfy the situation. When it comes to that, exceptional birthday wishes are ideal.
Being Sincere Without Falling into Trivial Words
Create a Lead-In Via a Memory
Close your eyes and think of one jo-go-around-the-head moment. The one in which you delude yourself when you are really in a bad day’s mood. Write down that memory. Convert it to one line. That is way better than the blurb inside a Hallmark card.

Spurn the High-Sounding Lingo
Usually a wish need not be after a Shakespeare sonnet. Keep it short, warm, and human. For instance, “Happy birthday to the guy who still gives me butterflies—and steals the blankets.”
Give It a Personal Angle
Got an inside joke? A mutual love for late-night ramen and crime TV series? Inject these topics. It is these kinds of little but meaningful things that bind people together.
