Painted for James  Dillsburg, PA

"Back in 2015, my wife and I had been trying for a baby. We were a few months into trying when we got the tragic news that my wife’s grandmother(Maime) passed away on her mom`s side. Now, my mother-in-law(Temma) was one of six kids and was very close to her parents. A couple of days after her mom’s passing my wife found out she was pregnant. And to add to the miracle it was gonna be a girl. We knew this was God`s gift of life and couldn’t help but put the connection between Maime’s passing and our blessing of life we were about to receive. When I found PaintYourLife, I was jaw-dropped at the detail of every painting. No one in this world would disagree with how much of a saint Temma is. After seeing the amazing work PaintYourLife does and having our second daughter on my birthday last year, we couldn’t help but make this Christmas a special one for the one person who deserves nothing more than the world. Thank you so much for changing our lives with this incredible painting."
