Happy Birthday no matter how old you areyoshida takurou
A great recommendation for couples who have been married for a while is Takuro Yoshida’s “Happy Birthday No Matter How Old You Are.” Once children are born and life becomes centered around them, and being together starts to feel like a given, the opportunities to celebrate birthdays tend to dwindle.
Many people may even realize only afterward that their wife’s birthday has passed.
In times like that, try gifting this song—even if it’s late! It conveys your gratitude of “Thank you for these happy days.”
