The story of Precious Moments is the story of our lives, of the experiences, both ordinary and meaningful, that mark each of our days.  Much more than a history of porcelain figurines, this is also the tale of three highly creative people: Sam Butcher, an artist inspired by his faith;  Gene Freedman, a businessman working in the giftware industry who recognized the potential popularity of Sam's artwork;  and Yasuhei Fujioka, a Japanese sculptor who transformed  Sam's wonderful drawings into magical, three-dimensional messengers of love and hope. ~~Excerpt from, "Precious Moments Last Forever" by Laura C. Martin

As each month passes, a mood changes, one season ends, and another begins.  The calendar is the record by which we measure the passing of the year.  Special times, special days, special occasions...these are the moments to commemorate and celebrate each month with a Precious Moments Calendar Girl.
