A 16-year-old girl from Georgia decided to give her boyfriend a very special gift this Christmas.

When Reagan Lee found out that her boyfriend, 18-year-old Garrett Chisum, wanted a Bible for Christmas, she had an idea.

Reagan decided to get Garret a Bible and use her artistic skills to personalize every single page of the Bible with handwritten notes, drawings, and designs.

And most of all, her boyfriend cherished the special gift.
