“Thank Heaven for Little Girls”

Congratulations, you've had a daughter. With her comes all the timeless love
and fond Christmas memories which are captured in this painting.

On a magical Christmas Eve, Santa gently holds the baby girl as lights on the tree sparkle and dance among Sugar Plum fairies.  The magic of special times and memories are reflected such as the toys of a young girl and toys that represent her first trips to an amusement park and the Nutcracker Ballet.  The Bible, representing a daughter’s Baptism (Confirmation, or Dedication), rests on her shelf.   A variety of items from her teenage years will remind her of those special school days, cheering for her high school, her first car, prom and graduation.  In the mirror is a reflection of a young woman, a bride. What beautiful memories this special heirloom holds!

To make this a truly unique gift, included with the artwork is a beautiful certificate of dedication, an outline to record those special moments and accomplishments in a young  girl’s life.

Imagine a daughter’s treasured Christmas memories as she grows up and remembers the love given with this “hope chest in a painting” exclusively from Brenda Harris Tustian.

“Thank Heaven for Little Boys”

Congratulations, you’ve had a son. 
Share the magic of Christmas and the joy of his memories. 

See the twinkle in Santa’s eye as he playfully holds your baby boy on this special Christmas Eve. The room glistens with the scenes of his life.  From the magical tree decorated with nostalgic toys and sports memorabilia, to his first train, his tricycle, and the little red wagon. The Bible in the bookcase marks the Baptism (Communion, Confirmation and so on) of your son.   On the shelves are items that represent his teenage years:  the beginning of school, his first car, his graduation, and the whole world that is ahead of him.

There will be a place to record all of these special memories, including his first trip to the circus.

Imagine a son’s treasured Christmas memories as he grows older and remembers the love given with this “history of his life” exclusively from Brenda Harris Tustian.
