Questions
What do you write in a birthday card for Dad?
Dads are easy to under-thank and often a little awkward about praise, so keep it warm and understated. Name a small, true thing and slip the sincere bit in. The strongest messages name one specific, true thing about them and say plainly how you feel — keep it short and it lands harder.
How long should a birthday message be?
One to three sentences is plenty. A short, specific line beats a long, generic paragraph — people remember the detail, not the word count.
