List
#1 I remember when you were this tiny baby that I held in my arms… Today, here you are still a child, but a lot more grown up. I’ve watched you grow from a little kid into a young adult… And I couldn’t be happier for you on your 18th birthday!
#2 Are you really an adult now? Congrats on reaching the just legal drinking age. Have a great birthday and we wish you all the best for your future!
#3 18 years ago today, our lives were changed forever. That was the day you came into this world, and we’ve been your biggest fans ever since. We hope that you have a wonderful birthday party.
#4 You’re 18!! Any idea of what you want to do for your 18th birthday party? If not, maybe I could help plan it for you! Just kidding – but seriously, happy 18th Birthday! You turned out pretty awesome if I do say so myself 😉

You are our last and only child together, and you look so much like your mom from behind.

We love you so much and hope that your special day is everything that you want it to be…and more!
#23 Having kids is an amazing feeling. But, I must warn you… once the kid turns 18 they tend to hate you more than love ya! Just kidding of course – Happy Birthday!!
#24 On your 18th birthday… You now have all the power in this world. Use it wisely, and remember that no matter what people tell you today about how adult life will be, nothing can prepare you for it until it arrives. Enjoy every second of your day with reckless abandon, because this is a milestone that only comes once in a lifetime after all!
#25 May you have many, many more birthdays to celebrate. However, this year there is a change in the celebrations. Since you’re now all grown up and 18 years old already, we can’t really give presents anymore. But to make up for that, we decided to get back at it with a bang by giving each one of your friends a birthday smacks! It’s going to be epic!
