Last year, I wanted to make my dad’s birthday truly special, but I wasn’t sure how he’d react.
I thought, What if it’s too much or too little?
I decided to focus on small things he loved his favorite coffee, a handwritten note, and a cake I secretly ordered.
When he saw everything, his smile made all my doubts disappear.
I realized that birthdays aren’t about grand gestures they’re about love, memories, and showing you care in your own way.
If you want to make your dad feel special too, this Happy Birthday Dear Dad guide will give you ideas to create heartfelt moments he’ll never forget.
