When you were young, your dad taught you how to ride a bicycle, picked you up when you scraped your knee and carried you on his shoulders so you could see the world from up high. As you got older, he became more of a friend\u2014someone who was always there with a listening ear and good advice, or just to make you laugh when you needed to be cheered up. You know how much he means to you, but that doesn\u2019t mean Father\u2019s Day messages are easy to write.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re stuck on what to write in a Father\u2019s Day card that will accompany your gifts for him<\/a>, you\u2019re not alone. The best message is the one crafted just for him. Whether your dad is the active type who loves adventure or the entertainer always manning the grill, we can help you find the right words to say with these Father\u2019s Day card messages.<\/p>\n

What to write in a Father\u2019s Day card<\/h2>\n

Just think of the grade school macaroni artwork that your dad gushed over, and you\u2019ll remember that any words spoken from the heart will mean the world to him. If you\u2019re having trouble getting started, follow our tips on how to craft a meaningful card.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Express your gratitude.<\/strong> Here\u2019s your opportunity to list the qualities that make your dad, father-in-law or husband special. You can compliment him on what a great dad he is, or name something specific that you are grateful for. Focus on the positive, and\/or simply wish him a great day.<\/li>\n
  2. Get personal.<\/strong> Think of your dad\u2019s personality, and you\u2019ll know what to write. If he loves goofball dad jokes, maybe you want to write a funny message. If he\u2019s sentimental, you can share a memory that will make him smile.<\/li>\n
  3. End with a warm closing.<\/strong> Sign off with \u201clove\u201d, \u201cwarmly\u201d, \u201cblessings\u201d or whatever term best fits your relationship.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Messages from a daughter<\/h2>\n

    From the little moments to the big events like your first ballet recital or walking you down the aisle, fathers and daughters share a special bond. If you\u2019re a daddy\u2019s girl, sing it loud and proud with a special Father\u2019s Day message.<\/p>\n

    1. Thanks for acting like a kid when I was a kid, acting like a friend when I needed a friend and acting like a parent when I needed one. You are the best man I know. Happy Father’s Day!<\/li>\n
    2. Thank you for showing me what a man should be like. Thank you for teaching me how a man should treat a woman. It is because of your example that I know how a man should treat me and I make sure that I get treated with respect. Happy Father\u2019s Day, Dad!<\/li>\n
    3. Happy Fathers Day, Dad! Thank you for always being there for me when I really needed it. I am so grateful that I can always count on you. There has never been a luckier daughter.<\/li>\n
    4. Thank you for being there every day with just the love and guidance I\u2019ve needed. Everything you\u2019ve taught me has stuck with me and I\u2019m lucky to have a dad like you.<\/li>\n
    5. Dad, if it weren\u2019t for you I wouldn\u2019t be the woman I am today. Thanks for always making me your special little girl. Happy Fathers Day, Dad!<\/li>\n
    6. Even though Father\u2019s Day only comes once a year, I hope you know that I appreciate everything you\u2019ve done for me each and every day. Thanks for all you\u2019ve sacrificed so that I could become the person that I am now.<\/li>\n
    7. Dad, you have given me the best things in life: your time, your care and your love. I am truly grateful to have you in my life. Happy Father\u2019s Day!<\/li>\n
    8. Happy Father\u2019s Day to the man who put the fear into all my homecoming and prom dates\u2026and who still treats me like a princess!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Messages from a son<\/h2>\n

      The relationship between a father and son is undoubtedly a special one. A father serves as a positive role model and passes on his wisdom through shared moments. When a father believes in a son, he can do anything.<\/p>\n

      1. The older I get, the more I realize how important it is to have a dad like you. You have provided stability in my life and the love and acceptance I needed. Happy Father’s Day!<\/li>\n
      2. Dad, I am so proud to be your son. If I can become half the man you are, I will consider myself successful.<\/li>\n
      3. Happy Father’s Day to my hero and role model. Thank you for everything you have done for our family. We love you with all our hearts.<\/li>\n
      4. I love you because you\u2019re patient, funny, smart and\u2014best of all\u2014forgiving (p.s. I am the one who dented the car in the summer of 2010). Happy Father\u2019s Day!<\/li>\n
      5. You will never go out of style. Happy Father\u2019s Day to the coolest dad ever.<\/li>\n
      6. Happy Father\u2019s Day to the man who taught me how to step and throw, how to field a grounder, how to follow through and pretty much every other important thing I know about baseball and living!<\/li>\n
      7. Happy Father\u2019s Day to the dad who has always been there for me, who taught me all the right lessons, showed me what it means to love a child unconditionally and raised me with all of his heart.<\/li>\n
      8. Happy Father\u2019s Day, Dad! I love how we don\u2019t even need to say out loud that I am your favorite child. Don\u2019t worry, I won\u2019t tell! But feel free to keep up the preferential treatment.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          The time, effort and love your father-in-law invested in your spouse has paid off for your family. And as a grandfather, he continues to be an important influence on your sons and daughters. For all the ways your father-in-law has contributed, send him a special thank you on Father\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n
