“Loving Tiara is the kind of memoir that both breaks your heart and fills it up with hope and inspiration. Tiffani Goff is a fierce and faithful mother who is determined to give her daughter a good life. Her story shows us how a family can overcome extraordinary obstacles, and how a mom can be a superhero.” Candi Sary, author of Black Crow White Lie

“Beautiful, raw, authentic, tragic, and an incredibly precious read…”

“This memoir, when once finished, there is no looking back. After having the privilege of being part of this family’s day-to-day life, I wanted my experience to be never-ending. This story rapidly became essential food for my soul, allowing me to savor every “bite” with each page. Tiara’s life is the thread of the memoir, however never do the others become blurred. This is truth, without excuses, explanations, or regrets. What a distinguished way to experience life on life’s terms. Thank you, Tiffani! I have never been able to have children, however, those three beautiful girls were mine as long as the story went on. Give yourself the gift of this read, it will be with you for a very long time.” Verified Amazon Customer, 12/10/2020

” Five stars isn’t enough!”

” Wow, definitely gives perspective to those caring for special needs children. Tiffani is the definition of sacrifice, dedication, and unconditional love while taking care of her daughter, Tiara. Thank you tiffani for sharing Tiara with us.” Verified Amazon Customer 12/30/2020

Prologue from Loving Tiara:

I can never find the quiet. I know that someday this will end and I will have plenty of quiet time, but right now I can’t imagine that being my reality. Someone always needs me.

Most days I just hope to survive until she falls asleep. I constantly ask God, the universe, whoever can hear my thoughts, to give me the strength to carry on. It’s the mantra that plays in my head all day long until she falls asleep at night, and then I say, “Thank you, thank you, thank you” with a huge sigh of relief. I survived another day.

I always wonder how I find the strength to keep going. Everyone in my family and inner circle are shocked that I keep doing what I’m doing. Some have begged me to stop, find another way, or have her placed outside the home, for they fear she will eventually kill me. I refuse to listen to them or entertain their suggestions, because I know in my heart, being her caretaker won’t last forever. I’m meant to be her caretaker for her entire life, and no one can stop me from doing otherwise.

I often wonder how I can love, more than life itself, the person who abuses me daily. Why do I crave her kisses, her bear hugs, and her contagious smiles, when I know she will suddenly lash out at me without any warning?

I would rather die taking care of her than give up on her. I am her mother, her voice, her strength her advocate, and her biggest fan. I am also a wife and a mother to my two other beautiful girls. They all need me to be strong, so they can pretend our lives are “normal.” Even when I feel like dying inside, I carry on, because that is who I am. This is the story of loving Tiara.

Another almost wordless wednesday…

Dec. 04, 2013

Today I am showing you a bunch of pictures because I am beyond exhausted.  Lou and I had an phone appointment at 6am this morning and all night I kept waking up worrying about missing the appointment.  I am sure you all know that feeling of worrying about missing something important so you can’t sleep.. …

NO MORE FOOD !!!!

Dec. 03, 2013

Today I am losing it.  Tiara won’t stop eating and it is driving me insane.  Over the past 2 years she has steadily gained weight because of her medications.  Sometimes she is insatiable and no matter what I feed her she wants more.  She is in one of those phases and I feel like I…

Never a dull moment!

Dec. 02, 2013

Thanksgiving morning I woke up and was cooking in the kitchen when water kept appearing under my feet.  I didn’t think I had spilled anything yet, there was a small puddle.  I wiped it up and then it reappeared.  What the heck?  I started stepping on the joints of the fake wood floor and saw…

Do you live as if each day is your last?

Nov. 27, 2013

If you do, then I suspect you are grateful for your life all year long not just this week.  I love hearing people talk about Thanksgiving and being grateful, I just wish people could find it in their hearts to contemplate these feelings daily.   Because of Tiara, my faith in God and my desire to…

conference week, fun times….

Nov. 26, 2013

So today was Trinity’s first conference for the year and there was no surprises, at least not on my end.  I do think the teachers were a little surprised to hear how much effort I put into helping her study each night.   I am not going to tell you she has straight A’s, but…

Why do I do this?

Nov. 25, 2013

Every morning I find myself doing the exact same disgusting thing and every time I do it, I ask myself, “Why do you keep doing this, Tiffani?”  So what dumb thing do I do every morning and always regret? Well, every morning Tiara wakes up with a really full diaper.  I try to change it…

How cute is she?

Nov. 22, 2013

First I want to say that I know many of you have been having a hard time reading my posts from the email I send you.  I know this because at least 3 people told me today they can’t find the right spot to click so they can finish reading the post and they are…

Is that a wart?

Nov. 21, 2013

Yesterday I mentioned I got stung by a bee and I wasn’t really worried about the whole thing, but I am now.  All night I itched my hand during my sleep.  I woke up this morning and it was super swollen, red and still itching like crazy.  I decided I must not have gotten all…

Quite the day already!

Nov. 20, 2013

I actually had a decent night sleep last night and was contemplating if Tiara and I should go for a walk even though we didn’t have a walking partner when I received a text from our real estate agent.  “We have a showing request for 10am this morning.”  Well, it was 7:30am, Tiara was still…

So it looks like my site is almost back to normal, after 2 days of being down and 8 hours of customer support.  I wrote an email update on Monday so if you are on my email list you knew my site was broken.  I suggest everyone sign up for my email list because then…

Recent Interview

Who is tiffani?

Mom, Wife, author of Loving Tiara, retired home stager, and chronic volunteer. I laugh when I'm happy, nervous, or stressed, so basically, I'm always laughing, and you can hear me from down the block if the windows are open. I love to swear even though it isn't ladylike, and I'm brutally honest, but in a super nice way, or so I think? I tend to roll my eyes, and apparently, my face is very expressive because even when I don't open my mouth, everyone knows what I'm thinking. My hubby and I are homebodies; I'm obsessed with always doing the "right thing " and taking care of my skin. I love learning, am always trying to evolve as a human being, and am a bit of a perfectionist. Let's have some fun! xoxo tiffani
