When someone you cherished now celebrates their birthdays in Heaven, it leaves you feeling lonely. This is understandable, and you are definitely not alone in your feelings of grief. Thankfully, there are still ways for you to still wish your loved one a happy birthday in Heaven, and ways to thoughtfully iterate it, too.
Here are some special happy birthday wishes to speak in your heart for your loved one this year on their special day.
• “Happy birthday, ________. I don't think you could ever know how much I miss you right now. I wish more than anything that we could be together again to celebrate your day. But I know we will again one day.”
• “It's your birthday, but it doesn't feel like it without you here. It doesn't matter; I'm going to celebrate it like you are here because I know that's what you would have wanted. I love and miss you so much.”
• “I know you're in Heaven and that your birthday there must be way better than any party I could have thrown for you here. And maybe I'm being selfish when I say that I wish you were still here anyway. Happy birthday, love.”

• “We can't go out celebrating today like we used to. But I wanted you to know that I'm still going out – still going to stop by all our old haunts, still going to buy you a birthday gift, still going to raise a glass in your memory. I love you, _______, happy birthday in Heaven.”
• “I used to think that this day would get easier every year that went by. But quite the opposite has happened. Happy birthday, sweetie…I can't wait for the day we can truly celebrate you again.”

• “Happy birthday, Mom. I didn't know how I would feel today, and to be honest, I'm feeling pretty sad. I wish you were here, but I also wish you the most beautiful and joyous birthday today in the presence of the Lord. I love you.”
• “There's so much I want to tell you, Mama, and so much I want to hear you tell me. But on today, your special day, I simply want to wish you a happy birthday in Heaven.”
• “Happy birthday, Mother. How I wish I was there to celebrate with you.”

• The calendar says it's your birthday…but it really doesn't feel like it. Tonight I am getting takeout from our favorite little restaurant we'd always spend your special day at. I know you would join me if you could. Happy birthday, Mom, I sure do love you.”
• “Sending hugs and kisses straight up to Heaven just for you today, Mommy. I wish I could wrap my arms around your neck and give them to you myself, but I'll have to let God do it for me this year. Happy birthday.”

Happy Birthday in Heaven: Dad
You used to celebrate every birthday together, but this year you must wish him, “Happy birthday in Heaven, Dad.” Here are some ways to express that sentiment in a meaningful way.

• “Happy birthday to the man who taught me all about the Reason I know I'll get to see you again one day: Jesus.”

Happy Birthday in Heaven: Brother
Your brother has been by your side through it all. You've always enjoyed celebrating birthdays together, but this year is going to be different.

Happy Birthday in Heaven: Sister
Sisters share a close bond that those who don't have a sister simply can't comprehend. You will always want to wish your sister a happy birthday on her special day – even when she's in Heaven – so here are some messages to help you do that.

Happy Birthday in Heaven Poems
Sometimes a little poetry can speak our emotions for us when we can't get the words out ourselves. These are written by yours truly and are free for personal use.
Mother's Memory
Night had fallen, on the eve before
And I knew it wouldn't be the same
As last year, or the year before
So I simply said your name.
I cried in my sleep and wished you were close
By me still to rock and hold
My hand in the dark, my head to your chest
And whisper softly, a mother's caress:
“It's okay, I'm fine. I'm at the Lord's feet
I'm dreaming of you and the day we can meet
To celebrate again that one day each year
The reason I was born at all: to love you, my dear.”
Tonight
Tonight I'll raise a glass to you
In a mournful sort of way
To celebrate who you once were
How you lived your life each day.
I'll cry a toast to evermore
I'll dance alone in our room
I'll light a candle then blow it out
I'll sing a song to you.
I'll tell everyone how hard it's been
Yet it won't be honest enough
I'll cry into your tear-stained pillow
Yet it won't bring you back, my love.
Every year's the same, and it'll always be
Only me alone, and never you and me
To celebrate your special day
To live, to laugh, together be
The angels better treat you well
The Lord, I know He does
But until I can see you with my own eyes
I'll remember you and what was.
Birthday Wishes from Heaven (on YOUR Birthday)
What about when it's YOUR birthday, and your loved one is no longer with you? How can you possibly celebrate YOUR day when the one person you want to celebrate with literally can't?
If you have a friend in Heaven, and your birthday is about to roll around again (only this time, without them), we have a piece of advice for you:
Celebrate anyway.
Why? Because it's what they would have wanted.
If you're finding that hard to imagine, here are some “birthday wishes from Heaven,” conceptualized messages from your loved one to help you feel just a little more content today:
• “You would not believe how beautiful it is here. Sorry, but I wouldn't want to leave Heaven for earth again any day – even your birthday! I look forward to the day we can celebrate YOU again, together.”
• “Happy birthday, __________. I know today is hard for you without me and I'm so sorry I had to leave you behind. When you get here, I'll catch you up on everything.”
• “The Lord called my name and I had to go. But it's on days like today that I wish earth had visiting hours. Happy birthday, honey, I love and miss you, too.”
• “I wish I could turn that frown upside down. Because there's no sadness whatsoever here! Happy birthday to you and many more to come before you get up here with me.”
• “Life is so short – I think I have a right to say that now. Enjoy it while you can, live it to the fullest and make the most of all the birthdays you are given. I love you.”
• “When the time comes, we'll get to celebrate your big day again. Until then, keep your chin up, do all the things you want to do, and remember me today and always.”
How to Celebrate the Birthday of Someone in Heaven
For several years after a family friend passed away, I'd buy a 16-ounce of his favorite soda (Sunkist) on his birthday and have a drink in his memory. It was such a simple thing to do, and no one else even knew about it. But it was a way to keep his memory alive in my own mind and heart.
That's something that you could do, too, for your loved one this year on their birthday. Did they have a favorite snack or drink, and was it always served at their birthday parties? Or maybe they had a favorite song (or perhaps you associate a certain song with them). Listen to it on their birthday as a sweet gift to them, in their memory.
Here are some more specific ways that you can celebrate the birthday of your loved one who's in Heaven now:
• Set their photo up and light a candle in their memory.
• Go to their favorite place, be it a certain store, restaurant or park.
• Call their family up and tell them you're thinking of them today.
• Say a prayer just for your loved one.
Happy Heavenly Birthday
One day, we will meet again and then we can celebrate you special day together.
When you're missing your bestie…
Beautiful birthday wishes for the love of your life.
I can't believe it's your birthday and you're not here to celebrate it with us. I miss you!
Mom, oh how I wish I was there with you to celebrate together.
A father's absence is always felt so deeply.
