Happy 3rd Birthday to My Son Letter

[Mention the address of the sender]

[Mention the date]

Subject- Happy 3rd birthday to my son’s letter.

Dearest [mention the name of the son],

We made it through the three years. To be honest, I was never very concerned about you because newborns are pretty resilient; I was more concerned about myself. What a year it’s been: tough, lengthy but also short, and, in a word, amazing. You came into my life and utterly turned it upside down in all the finest ways.

You have an incredible sense of curiosity that never ceases to astound me. You’re like a sponge, soaking up whatever you can. You don’t take anything for granted and are always present in every scenario.

You’re like this self-sufficient little man who doesn’t need me anymore.  Moments of hugging on the bed and you snoozing in my arms are a few of the instances, but you do need me. You become comfy and fall back asleep, and those are the times I treasure the most.

You have tenderness and compassion that belies your age. You have this great ability to recognize when anything is bothering me since it is then that you begin talking in languages that make me laugh out loud. I’m completely empty without you. You are all I didn’t know I needed or wanted. Your birthday will always be remembered as the happiest day of my life.

Happy third birthday, [give the son’s name]. I have arranged a [mention the name of the gift] for you, darling. I know you will love that.

Your letter will be saved until you reach the age of comprehension through reading.

Yours truly,

Happy 4th Birthday to My Son Letter

[Mention the address of the sender]

[Mention the date]

Subject- Happy 4th birthday letter to the son.

Dearest [mention the name of the son],

You were born four years ago today, and my world has not been the same since. You’ve brought so much happiness, love, and adventure into my life. Thank you very much.

Thank you for your inquisitiveness, patience, and the numerous things you have taught me on our path together. Here are a few examples. You have shown me what love is all about. What it looks like to love with all of my heart and not keep anything back. And it is because of this love that I have grown to appreciate myself again.

You learn about love by taking care of yourself physically, emotionally, and spiritually. You can learn how to treat yourself by watching how you treat yourself. You learn to love yourself by watching how I appreciate myself.

I love to see how you have grown in these years. You were such a little bundle of joy when you were born. But now, you have been a whole box of joy! I love you, my prince. Now that you have entered the age of 4, it is now the time of entering to the playschool, where you would gain a lot of little friends.

Some of them will be on your side until the next stage. You need to be a very good and kind boy in order to succeed. Have a very happy life, my little emperor.

Happy birthday darling [mention the name of the son].

Thanks for existing [Mention the name of the son]!

Mom loves you.

Letter to My Son in Heaven on His Birthday

[Mention the address of the sender]

[Mention the date]

Subject- Birthday letter to my son in heaven.

Dear [mention the name of the son],

It takes a lot of courage to write this letter to you after my heart got the biggest damage from losing you, the person whom I love the most. For any parents, there is no one else endearing and darer than their kids.

When the young son leaves their parents behind and goes a very long distance from the world, from where no one can get back to anyone, it makes the parents shatter from inside and as well as from outside. We are one of those kinds of parents who are going through the same feelings. The loss of you is immeasurable and unbearable as well. 

Suppose I have the ability to do one magic trick to construct a gateway to heaven so that I can bring you back from there. On this very special occasion of your birthday, you are not with us. Still, I wish you a very happy birthday [mention the name of the son]. Sometimes I feel happy by thinking that you are in the company of God. I wish you may live forever within in every birth. 

Last but not least, cheers to the time we spent together, and gave us the reasons to be grateful and happy. Your presence was very short, but your memories with us were something we could not get over from. Once again, happy birthday in heaven, son.

Happy birthday [mention the name of the son].

Thanks for existing, 

Love you [mention the name of the son]. 

Yours truly,

Happy Birthday to My First-Born Son Letter

[Mention the address of the sender]

[Mention the date]

Subject- Happy birthday letter to my first son.

Dearest [mention the name of the son],

My entire life has changed once I discovered out I was expecting you, my love [mention the name of the son. I know you are such a little boy and cannot read this letter still now. But I will keep this letter in your treasure box so that you can read a letter.

I love you, my prince. We never were nervous before you arrived. We were expecting you to arrive and forever impact our lives – and boy did you! When you were initially placed on Mommy’s chest the minute you were born, I felt as if I had been born as well – my life’s mission became plain. My goal is to serve you! I don’t remember what life was before you, and what I do remember is that it was empty – because you weren’t there!

You have a wide range of interests! Almost everything appeals to you! You enjoy throwing balls, opening and closing items (such as books!), climbing, crinkling paper, and removing all of the wipes from your wipe packets. You enjoy going to the park and meeting other babies – as well as climbing up the slides.

Honey, happy birthday! Today marks the one-year anniversary of your birth. I knew then, and I know now, that I was born to be your mother. Nothing makes me more proud or happier in my life than you. Each day begins with waking up to your gorgeous tiny face and fluffy hair. 

Happy birthday darling [mention the name of the son].

Thanks for existing [Mention the name of the son]!

Mom loves you.

Happy 21st Birthday Letter For Son from Mom

[Mention the address of the sender]

[Mention the date]

Subject- Happy 21st birthday son from mom’s letter

Dear son,

You already know that I can’t let major events go by without spilling my emotions out in words on a page. I believe I sat down and wrote about you on your sixteenth birthday only yesterday. And it had only been a few days since your first. But today, on your 21st birthday, I have had some things I want you to know, just as I did then. I’ve taken this role seriously for the past 21 years, when you first granted me the title of Mom, and (wow!) it’s been a rollercoaster ride at times.

Every day, make your bed. Not only would this make your mother happy, but it will also help you establish discipline, which will benefit you in many other aspects of your life. You can never go wrong if you make the proper decision. To do the right thing is often the right choice, no matter how much it costs or what you have to give up in the short term. Get as much experience as you can for the least amount of money.

Dad used to say this all the time. Of fact, what he meant was that you should learn from other people’s mistakes rather than make your own. This is invaluable advice. Always keep that in mind.

Make an effort to be humble and rich; glory and life flow from having humility and fear of the Lord. Never allow yourself to become engrossed in the sense of entitlement. The individual standing next to you has the same God-given rights as you. We are only able to appreciate all of our blessings because of His grace. That is something you should never forget.

And rest certain that I’ve taken careful note of everything you’ve taught me over the course of your 21 years. Thank you for teaching me valuable things that have helped me grow as a person.

Letter from Mother to Son on His Birthday

[Mention the address of the sender]

[Mention the date]

Subject: Letter from Mother to Son on His Birthday

My dearest son,

Happy birthday! Today, as we celebrate the day you came into this world, I am overwhelmed with love and gratitude for the remarkable young man you have become. It feels like just yesterday when I held you in my arms for the first time, and now here you are, turning [age] years old. Time flies by so quickly, and I couldn’t be prouder of the person you are today.

Throughout the past [number] years, you have filled our lives with joy, laughter, and boundless love. From your very first steps to your first day of school, I have watched you grow into a kind-hearted, intelligent, and compassionate individual. Your presence has brought immense happiness and purpose to our lives.

As you embark on this new chapter of your life, stepping away from the innocence of childhood and into the exciting teenage years, I want you to know that my love and support will always be with you. You have already shown incredible strength, resilience, and determination, and I have no doubt that you will conquer any challenge that comes your way.

In this journey called life, it is important to remember what truly matters. I wish for you to cultivate values such as integrity, empathy, and perseverance. Be true to yourself and always treat others with kindness and respect. Embrace your uniqueness and let your light shine brightly, for you have so much to offer the world.

You have been blessed with opportunities and privileges that not everyone has, and I urge you to use them for the greater good. Stand up for justice, lend a helping hand to those in need, and always strive to make a positive impact on the lives of others. Your actions have the power to create a better world, and I have faith in your ability to make a difference.

As you continue to explore your interests and passions, remember to nourish your love for history. Dive deep into the stories of those whose voices have been marginalized and forgotten. Embrace the diversity of perspectives and learn from the richness they bring to our shared human experience.

My dear son, I want you to know that your happiness and well-being are of utmost importance to me. Pursue your dreams with courage and determination, and remember that true success lies not in material achievements but in a life filled with genuine joy and meaningful connections.

On this special day, I celebrate the incredible person you are and the boundless potential that lies within you. May this birthday be the beginning of an extraordinary year filled with love, growth, and endless possibilities. Always remember that I am here for you, cheering you on every step of the way.

Happy birthday, my beloved son. I am forever grateful to have you in my life, and I love you more than words can express.

With all my love,

Letter to My Son on His 30th Birthday

[Mention the address of the sender]

[Mention the date]

Subject- Letter to my son on his 30th birthday

Dear son,

I wanted to tell you how proud I am of the man you have become on your 30th birthday, but as you know, that isn’t feasible. However, I wanted to tell you how proud I am of the man you are becoming.

I tell you all the time that I am proud of you, but I’m not sure if there are words to express how proud I am; it’s a heartfelt feeling that is difficult to put into words. I hope you come to feel the same way about Kaila one day. I know you adore her, and I’m sure you can’t imagine loving her any more than you do now, but there is a new level of appreciation and love for your child as they grow into adults, and you are not just to love and are proud of them.

You have excelled in every job you have held, and you have accomplished everything you have set your mind to, and I feel nothing is beyond your reach. Some people have the intellect to achieve their goals but lack the motivation or physical ability to do so; others have talent but lack the mental attitude required to achieve their goals.

If you want to do anything, you research it if you don’t know how to do it and you listen if someone teaches you. I’m always amazed at the breadth of your knowledge; it’s as if you’re a sponge soaking up information. You know when to back out of a battle, but you’ll never back down from a fight.

Anyway, Kiddo, I just wanted to let you know that I think the world of you and not just because you are my son. I only hope some of the good things came from me, and on the rare occasion that you still need your momma, I am happy to be here. You have taught me so much about life and love.

I feel truly blessed to have been your mom and have you in my life for the past 30 years. Thirty years!! It is unbelievable to me what you and I have been through in 30 years; where did they go?

Yours loving

Happy 17th Birthday Letter to My Son

Subject- Happy 17th birthday letter to my son

Dear son [name of your son],

Hey, beautiful son, and on this momentous occasion of your 17th birthday, I simply wanted to wish you a very happy birthday. You are my star, my fantasy. You are one of God’s most precious gifts to me. People look up to you, and you have already made an impact in your life. Congratulations on your birthday! Today marks the beginning of another fantastic year in your life. I thank God for blessing me with such a lovely son as you. I hope that this birthday brings you lots of happiness and joy. There is no present in the world that compares to the joy you bring me every day.

My lovely boy, you are developing up far too quickly. I feel as if I’m bidding farewell to the small guy who used to run all around the house with dirt all over his clothing. You’ve developed into a lovely young guy with a bright future ahead of him. Years have passed in the blink of an eye, but I remember every one of them as if it were yesterday. You have provided me hope and strength to face new obstacles as they arise.

I wish that on your birthday, the people will say, “The planet has become a better place since you were born.” I hope your health continues to be stable and that no anomalies are discovered in your body.

I love you the most. You know that. Being your mom, I was a little worried about how would I ever raise you to a gentleman? But, now that you are growing into a wise gentleman, I am really very happy. I feel proud to be your mother! Lots of love to my boy!

Yours loving

Letter from Mother to Son on His Birthday

[Mention the date]

Subject- Letter from mother to son on his birthday

Dearest [mention the name of the son],

You turned [mention the age of your son] years old this week, and I can’t believe how much you’ve changed! It seems like only yesterday that they put you in my arms for the first time. That was such a vivid memory for me. Because you were coated in your own feces, the nurses inquired whether I wanted them to clean you up first. I quickly yelled, “No!” because I couldn’t wait for another second to wrap my arms around you.

I sobbed as I did so. You were exactly who I expected you to be. It may have been our first official meeting, but I felt like I’d known you for years. I’m astounded at how much you’ve changed and yet how much you’ve remained the same in your nine years of existence.

You’re the only one. And I adore it. I know I haven’t always been a wonderful mother to you. I’ve made my share of issues and continue to do so–but I’m grateful that you accept my regrets and still love me.

You’ve spent your entire life as the guinea pig since you were the first. And I understand how difficult that is. But you handle it flawlessly.

I hope you always know you can come to me and talk to me openly. I hope you know that I will always be there for you. Always remember that you are enough just the way you are. Your value has been set. It never changes. It doesn’t rise because you do something nice, and it doesn’t fall because you make an error. You were meant to be a prince.

I hope you realize and remember that I love you unreservedly. I hope you know that no matter what decisions you make, no matter how terribly you believe you’ve messed up, I will always love you. Forever.

Happy birthday my champ!

Yours loving
