Getting older really makes you appreciate things more than when you were a child. I really do appreciate and treasure every moment spent with you.

Happy birthday to my partner in crime. For every fun exploit you were always right beside me. Thanks for making life an adventure worth having.

You have so much potential in life and so much to offer the world. In all your successes don’t forget the people you have impacted and influenced along the way. People like me. Your favorite cousin.

I’m so glad that I have had a cousin like you to help guide and support me. I’m even more glad that now I’m finally taller than you!

Happy birthday to someone who was always stuck being the Robin to my Batman. You will always be my favorite sidekick in life.

The most valuable things in life can show up in the most unlikely places. Like cousins. You mean so much to me, and I adore you.

I’ve watched you grow over the years and I couldn’t be prouder of the young man you have become. Today I am wishing you many more birthdays filled with endless love and laughter.

Some wisdom for my favorite cousin: Don’t dwell on the dimness of the past, but instead press on for your future is incredibly bright.

When I was lonely you were a friend, and when I cried you cried with me. I will never forget all the ways you’ve been there for me and all the things you’ve done. Thanks for being present in my life.

Even though every day brings new challenges great or small. Remember that you have an inner warrior ready to conquer every battle. I hope your birthday heralds a year filled with greatness.

Bickering with you over the years has become not only my favorite past time, but has taught me that there is more than one way to say I love you.

There are lots of parts of my childhood I would like to forget, but none of them include you. Thanks for being a fond memory I can always look back on with happiness.

You help make life worth living and dreams worth dreaming. Wishing you all the very best on your birthday cousin.

When you were born, I was so sure that your mission in life was to ruin mine. Now I know that it was to enrich it in every way possible. My world is a better place because you are in it.

Thanks for always setting the bar so high that my achievements have paled in comparison. I still love you. I just also hate you a little too.

I am so thankful for the way our relationship has developed over the years. I would never have known that we would end up the very best of friends.

From daring adventures to the sweetest conversations, I am truly grateful to have you in my life.

I wish you happiness as big as the ocean today. Thank you for being not only a sweet cousin but a great friend as well. I hope you have a spectacular birthday.

I wish we could party like that every day, but then I guess it wouldn’t be a surprise. It was definitely worth getting a year older. Thank you for putting so much effort into making my day absolutely unforgettable!
