A Brother And Sister
Brother and sister
together as friends –Ready to face
whatever life sends.
Joy and laughter
pain and tears –There for each other
through all of our years.
Another year passed
and I'd just like to say-I wish you the best
in life everyday.
Happy Birthday
–
You broke my dolls
stole my skates –Kissed and dated
all my mates.
Blamed me for all
things gone wrong –When you knew it
was you, all along.
Now you know
there couldn't be another –Like you, my adorable
but, naughty Brother.
–
As round as a ball
cuddly as a bear –With big blue eyes
and sandy blond hair.
He giggles so loudly
as does his cry –So bold and daring
yet timid and shy.
He annoys me so much
and puts me through strife –But he is like sunshine
a light in my life.
Today it’s his birthday
annoying or not –My little Brother
I love him a lot.
–
You're thought of with affection
now your special day is here –Thoughts of you are full of warmth
each day throughout the year.
For when it comes to Brothers
you are the special kind –And every word inside this card
is wished with you in mind.
So when you read this birthday card
that's being sent your way –May it just remind you
that you're special every day.
–
When you are far away
and the miles keep us apart –I'm going to whisper
“I love you my brother”
and send it to your heart.
Distance does not
change a thingbe it near or far –
A brother's, a brother
close to my heart
no matter where you are.
Happy Birthday Bro
–
Little Brother Happy Birthday
I write this for my little Bro
though years between us be –There's one thing you must know
you mean the world to me.
A distance comes between us
I know this isn’t fair –This doesn’t change anything
my love is always there.
I'm proud of you my little Bro
your life is going great –When I'm gone, don’t be sad
be happy, little mate.
Another year has passed us bye
look how much you've grown –Happy Birthday little Bro
time has really flown.
–
There's no other love
like the love for a Brother.–
I'm writing this to tell you
as I want you to really know –How much I really love you
though it often doesn’t show.
I can't express in words alone
just what I feel for you –I can't even come close
but just know that it's true.
You're always there for me
and I wanted you to know –You're not just my brother
but my best friend also.
I know we've both been through a lot
and we're still going strong –But we've always made a great team
even when struggles were long.
I love you more than you'll ever know
Even when we fight with each other –But I thank God everyday
He gave me you for a brother.
Happy Birthday My Brother
–
Your Birthday's come around again
another year's gone by –And you are wished so very well
and here's the reason why.
Now I'm not trying to flatter you
however it may seem –But you've always been someone
who is held in high esteem.
And now it's time to tell you
that with every passing year –You've never been far from my thoughts
and I hold you so dear.
And now that it's your special day
dear brother, can you see –How wonderful I think you are
and what you mean to me.
Have a wonderful Birthday Bro
–
A Happy day like this one
brings special thoughts of you –And with these thoughts come wishes
that are very special too.
Wishes for a birthday
full of laughter and good cheer –Enough to last, not just today
but each day of the year.
You have a way of doing things
with such a thoughtful touch –And that is why, dear Brother
you are loved so very much.
Here's hoping for a day
that sees your dreams come true –For there's no other Brother
quite as wonderful as you.
Happy Birthday Dearest Brother
–
I searched and searched for something
to give you on your special day –But nothing was quite good enough
or not the words I wanted to say!
I looked in the stores to find
that perfect little gift –Something very special
to give your heart a lift.
I looked in the dept stores
and wondered what to do –Nothing there could come close
to being special enough for you.
I looked in all the papers
I even looked on line –Praying that somewhere
a special gift for you I’d find.
Then I felt a gentle nudge
that gave me quite a start –T’was if a voice had said to me
‘look within your heart'.
So I looked inside my heart
at all the memories there –Of all the wonderful loving
memories that we share.
And I came up with this little verse
that is so simple, yet so true –The best thing about being your sister
is that for a brother, I have in you.

Happy Birthday Wishes for Someone in Heaven
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.

• “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.”

• “I know we can't celebrate today like we have in years past. But I hope you know that I still try. Happy Birthday.”

• “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.”
• “I will never let today become just another day. Because it will always be your special day. Happy birthday in Heaven, ________. I hope you can feel the love I'm sending your way.”

Happy Birthday in Heaven: Mom
That first birthday Mom celebrates in Heaven is her most glorious one, yet the hardest for the children who survived her. Here are some ways to wish your Mom a happy birthday when she is no longer just a phone call away.
• “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.”
• “Every day since you passed away has been hard, Mom. Today has been especially difficult, but I know you wouldn't want to see me sad like this. So here's a smile just for you, just for today. I love 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.”
• “Remember how you used to celebrate your whole birthday month and not just your birthday? I'm going to keep that candle burning for you, Mom. I love you.”
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.

• “I looked in the mirror today and saw my father. And know what? I couldn't complain.”
• “Happy birthday to the man who taught me all about the Reason I know I'll get to see you again one day: Jesus.”
• “My loss was Heaven's gain, Daddy. But that doesn't make this day any easier. I love you and can't wait to be together again one day. Happy birthday.”
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.

• “They say, ‘If only heaven had visiting hours…' Well I say, if only earth had visiting hours. I'd bring you back in a heartbeat to celebrate just today…then God could have you back.”
• “Happy birthday to my brother in Heaven. I'm sure after a glimpse of the heavenly realms there's no way I could drag you back into this one for just for one more birthday together. And that's okay. I love you.”
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.
• “I've spent the whole day looking through photos of us during happier times. I've laughed, cried, gone numb and felt the pain of losing you all over again. Happy birthday, sweet sister. It's not the same here without you.”

• “I'm sitting here trying to come up with a way to tell you happy birthday when there's really no way to physically do so. It's breaking my heart, but I'll say it anyway: Happy birthday, sister. You are sorely missed.”
• “I will always celebrate you.”
Happy Birthday in Heaven: Friend
Friends are the family we choose for ourselves. You may have lost your friend, but you certainly didn't lose the memories of birthdays past that will stay tucked in your heart forever.
• “It doesn't feel right to celebrate this day. But I'm going to do it anyway, for you and in your memory, because it's what you would have wanted. Happy birthday, ________, I love you dearly.”

• “I don't know if you can hear me, so I'll ask God to pass it along: I love you, I miss you, and I miss the good times we always had together. Happy birthday, __________. I hope it's a good one.”
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.
