"My mother lost her parents a long time ago when I was around 6 / 7 years old. She always thinks about them and wishes my little twin sisters would have met them because they would all love each other so much. And my mother even sometimes cries at night just the thought that they never met. So I wanted to give her a priceless gift that comes close to all of them being together. As I told her in the note they may have never met our eyes but they sure have visited plenty of times from the sky. Them being together In That picture and the way the artist made the hand on each of the girls was so amazing because that brought happiness to her that she hasn’t had in a while. You guys at amazing And seeing how that picture made her feel was the best gift I could ever ask for, for my mother. "
