Jolly Christmas wishes for mum and dad

  • Wishing a wonderful Christmas and a happy New Year to the best mum and dad in the world! Thanks for making us shine bright.

  • You make us want to rock around the Christmas tree every day! Thanks for everything you do for us. We hope you have a great Christmas and a happy New Year.

  • We tried to think of all the classic Christmas quotes we could say, but not even Charles Dickens and Dr. Seuss had the words to tell you how much we loved you. Merry Christmas, we’re so lucky to have you.

  • Wishing you good cheer for the New Year and a super twinkly Christmas season. You’re better than all the presents under the Christmas tree!

Warm wishes for a best friend

  • The best Christmas gift of all is spending time with you! Thanks for always being there for me. Sending you lots of love for the coming year.

  • Christmas carols, mistletoe, making angels in the snow. All these things I just adore, but you, my dear, I love even more. Merry Christmas to my favourite person.

  • Merry Christmas to my #1 elf. I tried to think of a funny Christmas joke to tell you, but all I could think of is: I hope you have a cracker of a day!

  • Best wishes to my best friend in the whole, wide world. You make every day feel like Christmas.

  • Santa doesn’t need to bring me any presents this year – having you as a best friend is already the best gift of all! Thanks for making it a merry Christmas I’ll remember forever.

A bonus Christmas card poem for everyone


I don’t need the presents, I don’t need the snow,

I don’t need the carols, or the mistletoe.

I don’t need the turkey, or the Christmas tree,

I don’t need Santa, I think you’ll agree.

That the best gift of all, can’t be bought in a store,

It just can’t be wrapped, or put in a drawer.

It’s really so simple, I just want to say,

That the best gift of all is knowing you every day.


Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to the person I love most in the world.
