How to write 50th birthday wishes
A 50th birthday is a big moment, and the card often gets read in front of family and friends at a party. That makes it a great place to celebrate a life well lived so far: the family they raised, the work they did, the people they've helped. A short list of what you admire about them can be more touching than any poem.
Humor still works at fifty, especially affectionate jokes about technology, music taste or a growing love of gardening. Just make sure the card ends with gratitude. If you're writing to a parent, this is a wonderful chance to say thank you for everything; if it's a friend, toast the next fifty years together.
