I have been reading Dana’s blog since before it was Roscommon Acres. (Does anyone remember when it was Principled Discovery?)
And when she lost her little son in an accident shortly before Christmas, I felt like I was mourning for a dear friend. I was mourning for a dear friend. Even though I had never met her or spoken with her, I felt as though I knew her because she has been sharing pieces of her life with me and all of her blog readers for a long time.
And my heart was broken imagining what she was feeling.
Since that time, Dana has dedicated herself to raising money to fund “Tiggy’s House“, a center in Nepal that will reach out to orphans and street children. Dana wants those children to know the love her little “Tiggy” knew during his short life.
One way she raises money for Tiggy’s House is making by making and selling her beautiful jewelry. 100% of the proceeds goes toward funding the center, and the goal is $50,000.
Dana sent me this beautiful mother’s bracelet that has my birthstone and my husband’s on each side of the cross. Around the rest of the bracelet, in birth order, are the birthstones for each of our 8 children. I LOVE it!
You can find these awesome bracelets at her Etsy store, and if you buy one, you will know that the money will go toward a worthy cause.
Dana would also like to give one of my readers your very own custom made mother’s bracelet! This would make an awesome Mother’s Day gift for you or someone you love!
Simply leave a comment on this post (email readers will need to click through to the post) telling me you would like to win this bracelet.

Since all of my jewelry is from the 1980′s (before kids), I’d love to have this beautiful bracelet to wear!
What a wonderful ministry! As a mother of 8,I know how hard it is to find bracelets or rings that have enough space for that many birthstones. Beautiful I checked out her etsy store,and she has many other lovely things,too.
I would love to receive one of these bracelets. What a meaningful keepsake.
I am a gramma nearing 60 years old, and have experienced uncounted Blessings from the hand of our LORD (for even in the hard things HE is working Good). This is a wonderful time to live– with the CHRISTian movies coming out to impact our society (has anyone seen October Baby??); women sharing their hearts and lives with others–mirroring our LORD’S heart in Titus 2; families allowing GOD to turn their ashes into beauty and being productive to the benefit of the least of these……….. May our LORD abundantly Bless Dana’s “Loving” through the work of her hands.
The bracelet is beautiful! I would love to win it. What a great idea!
I would love to win the bracelet.
The bracelet is very pretty.

I have been looking around a bit for a bracelet to wear as a reminder of my commitment to parenting in a way that consistently shows God’s love to my children – and this bracelet would be perfect for this purpose!
The bracelets are so pretty! and the cause is wonderful. I’d love a bracelet to give my sister in law. She is a lady of few funds but lots of heart and she gives and gives of herself.
I would love to win and would be so happy to wear this bracelet and share Tiggy’s sad story and Dana’s mission. I feel Dana’s heartache and am amazed at her powerful strength to turn this sadness into such wonderful good.
Even though I have never lost a child, I can imagine what she went through when she lost her son. My thoughts and prayers are with her and her family as they continue to grieve. I would be honored to have a bracelet made by her loving hands. Thank you for bring us such wonderful and inspiring stories.
We have adopted two children and would be honored to wear such a beautiful bracelet. What a great way to show others, ways they can help and minister to orphans if they are not able to adopt. I would love to win this bracelet.

I would love to win this bracelet for my mother. February 4, of this year, I lost my sister Kathy, her 29th birthday was 2 months away. My mother is in such pain from the lost of her daughter. This is the second time my mother has had to experience the pain of losing a child. Kathy had a twin named Kelly that passed away at birth. Now Kathy is with her twin sister Kelly in heaven. My mother had to say goodbye to two loved daughters. This bracelet would be such a wonderful Mother’s Day gift of her.
Would love to win one of these beautiful bracelets.
The bracelets are so pretty! I would love to win one.
I’ve been wanting something like this! If I don’t win, it’s good to know that I can order one.
I, too, was heartbroken when she lost Tiggy. So much love in his short life is a wonderful gift to share with those she hopes to share with. I would love to win this bracelet and I will be browsing the Etsy shop as well to keep them in mind for gifts.
I love it! I’ve been looking for some kind of mother’s bracelet or necklace that would be good for a large family; something that wouldn’t have 6+ charms hanging off it. This is great!
I would LOVE to win this. LOVE LOVE LOVE.

I would love to have one of Dana’s bracelets. I went and read several of her blogs at Roscommon Acres. I held my breath wanting the outcome to be anything else. Thank you (and Dana) for reminding me of the precious gift of my children.

So glad I found your blog today and have been blessed! This story really pulls on your heart strings. The bracelet is beautiful!
I would love to win
I love this idea! I would really like to own one. I have 4 kids and have had one miscarriage. I wonder if there could be a special, different bead that could commemorate the loss of a baby as well. Hmmm…
BEAUTIFUL bracelet, and I’d wear it in a second…but that is an ankh (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankh), not a cross, on the bracelet. Like I said, I’d wear it regardless, since Christ is the key of life and the giver of eternal life, but an ankh means different things to different people.
Beautiful! Both the bracelet and her mission.
What a beautiful bracelet! I love your blog and have been reading for a while! Thanks for the giveaway,
Stephanie
