Girls are a gift from God
As soon as I found out that I am carrying a baby girl and will be a mother of two daughters, I was thrill more than I expected—my husband and I sort of wished having a boy just because we have a girl already. Surprisingly, I was filled with full of joy and was happier than any other moments. So I sincelery gave thanks to the Lord about giving us another precious daughter and His plan is always perfect for us to live with God.
So I started thinking about how I express this moment of joy, then I came up with this quick pencil sketch saying, "Girls are gifts from God." I know my weakness are on grammars, spellings and common english expressions or phrase since it is my second language, so I checked my quote on google.
"Children are a gifts from the Lord"
I found this from searching and I noticed that it is a text from the Bible (NLT), book of Psalm chapter 127.
So I corrected my quote as "Girls are a gift from God" and finished artwork. I made it as screen saver for my own laptop display, and I also printed out in large so I can hang it on the wall of the two girls bedroom. Imagining that when the girls are growing up and saying, "this is beautiful mommy" is really melting my heart—they may not saying that though. But I am sure that they get some feeling about it in positive way.
My husband was happy about this poster and said, "why don't we selling this on our online shop?" Because it is not a fake but created with real story and true feeling, I agreed with him. So it is on our Etsy shop now. I really hope people, who see this piece from our shop or even have it as their own, feel the same way with us.
