Paragraphs for your friend’s birthday

1. Having a best friend is a blessing one can only hope for. A best friend is one to share all your ups and downs as you go through this roller coaster we call life. Being able to lean and rely on someone is one of the best feelings out there, so when your best friend has a birthday approaching, it’s only natural to want to do something special to show how much you appreciate and love him or her. A birthday is a special day for an individual and on this day, the birthday girl or boy deserves to be showered with love and attention. Giving the birthday person a nice, thoughtful gift or a thoughtful card can make the person appreciate you more than you may know and make his or her day very special.

2. It seems like just yesterday when you were too quiet to hear in a room and you were as shy as a mouse. I guess our friendship is what created the monster you are now and I’m fine with that. Happy birthday you beautiful, crazy person.

3. Among a thousand friends you are a special one and among millions of gems you are a rare one. Even if every day was your birthday, I wouldn’t miss any. Happy birthday to you, my special friend.

4. Our friendship is like a long puzzle—we can’t ever figure it all out but we keep trying to. We’re besties for life, no matter what. Guess you’re stuck with me, friend, so here’s to one more year of roller coasters and shopping sprees. Happy birthday!

5. When some people disappear from your life like clouds disappear from the sky, it’s no big deal. But with you, it’s different—you’re not a cloud, you are my sunshine and rainbow and everything in-between. Thank you for making me laugh so hard I cry, for holding me when I need a long hug and for sticking with me all this time. You’re the best friend in the world.

6. If I was Mickey you would be Minnie and if I was Pooh you would be Piglet. You’re the tick to my tock, the bounce in my step and the only one who can make me dance till my feet hurt. If I was Peter Pan you would be my Tinker Bell—for without our friendship there would be no magical fairy dust in my life. In other words, I would have no wings to fly. Happy birthday to you and thanks for being so amazing.

Best gifts for the best person in your life

I mean, everybody loves a birthday cake and is there anything sweeter than a personalized cake for your friend? You can put their favorite superheroes or one of your inside jokes on it but honestly, a cake is a cake. It’s perfect in every shape and form.

2. Scrapbooks and videos

It’s time to bring out your inner DIY goddess for this one—a scrapbook that has everything you two have done together and every silly selfie you made on your adventures. And who says going to Walmart is not an adventure? It’s as crazy as traveling across Middle-earth!

And if you have a bunch of photos and videos of you two, make one big Happy Birthday video of them. I guarantee, that video will be something your friend will surely watch on gloomy days!

3. A portrait of you two together

You can make it a caricature or something really nice, the idea is that you put something little extra on something ordinary. And is there anything prettier than a portrait of you two for your friend to hang over their bed? Or in the living room, to remind themself every day of how lucky they are?

4. Personalized, well, everything

From T-shirts and mugs to books and quills. Whatever it is that your friend loves to do or simply loves to own, spice it up with something specifically connected to them. For instance, if your friend is a writer, a personalized quill is the jackpot gift. If your friend loves Supernatural and hitting the gym, a T-shirt that combines both of them is a hit! The idea is that you take something they love and make it unique, just like your friend is.

5. Theme party
