Valentine Gift Idea #4 -WIN - Custom Hand Stamped Mother’s Necklace
I had been admiring custom mother’s necklaces on Etsy for quite some time and finally purchased the one shown, a few months ago. I absolutely LOVE this necklace and have received so many complements on it.
The sellers name is Heather and she has a store on Etsy called MissionMommyhood. You see, Heather and her husband have been trying to have a baby for several years now and have undergone many rounds of fertility testing and treatment. The next step for them is IVF (In Vitro Fertilization). I think Heather explains how she felt best so here is an excerpt from her store’s home page:
“In vitro costs between $15,000 and $20,000. I've been extremely stressed about this and wishing and praying that we could just get pregnant on our own or through IUI (which is still spendy, but not outrageous). But if in vitro is our only option, I keep wondering how will we pay for this?
I have been making mother's necklaces for about 7 months and have sold TONS of them. One day, I had 3 orders come in from 3 unrelated people, and I thought, "Isn't this ironic? I'm always working on a mother's necklace for someone, but I can't even be a mother myself?" There is nothing I want more in the world than to be a mommy.
That's when I had this idea to start an Etsy shop dedicated to raising funds for in vitro. I now feel a sense of control when I was feeling helpless. And I believe if everyone who orders from me sends my info on to their friends and family, I'll be able to make enough in about 6 months to a year for the in vitro.”

I really hope Heather makes her mark to get the in vitro! There is nothing better in this world than being a mommy! My heart aches for women like Heather who really want to conceive a child and cannot do so. I wish her the best of luck!

Dear Heather; My heart goes out to you. I will put you on my prayer list and pray for you daily.
My son and his wife have been trying for a few years also. No luck. We keep praying and will continue to do so. God has already blessed you in so many ways. Give control over to God. Continued prayers. Tina S.
