“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.

I forgot something rather important!

Jul. 11, 2013

I don’t know about you but one of the things I hate the most in this world is sitting in a hot car.  I feel totally claustrophobic and near suffocation if I don’t have enough cold air in a small space.  As a result I am kinda weird in the summer about getting Tiara in…

Is Tiara a movie star?

Jul. 10, 2013

Funny story.  Monday I was in Mother’s Market grabbing Trinity and I a Synergy before I picked her up from her Musical Theater Camp and I ran into someone from high school.  She looked exactly the same, so I recognized her right away and stopped to say Hi. She reads my blog so she knew…

Everyday I say…..

Jul. 09, 2013

I am so tired!  Apparently this is the phrase I have been saying since I was 2 years old.  My Mom recently told me that she used to pray when she woke me up in the morning that I would say anything but “I’m tired!”  Apparently she can’t remember a morning I didn’t say that…

The never ending holiday weekend…

Jul. 08, 2013

I hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July weekend even though I can’t quite claim the same.  I feel as if I haven’t written a post in forever but nothing new or great has been happening around my home, just more of the same.  Well that isn’t entirely true, but you can judge…

Shhh, don’t tell anyone…

Jul. 04, 2013

Wednesday afternoon I did something I haven’t done in years.  I went to the movies in the daytime by myself and it was great!!!! Lou and Tabitha were working, Trinity left for Lake Arrowhead with my parents and Tiara was with her caretaker.  The only thing I needed to do was start cleaning out our…

I’m back and Trinity got her TV…

Jul. 03, 2013

Yes, I took Tuesday off which is super random for me, but I was off looking at homes until late in the afternoon and ran out of time.  I have given myself a pass during this house ordeal.  If I can’t get my post done, I won’t stress or beat myself up over it.  I…

The poop never ends…

Jul. 01, 2013

It is Sunday night at 7:00 p.m. and I had pretty much given up the idea of writing a post for today.  I really wanted to tell you how much fun Trin had at camp and what I surprised her with when she got home but I am so overwhelmed I can barely type. I…

A small miracle has occurred!

Jun. 28, 2013

As Tiara’s Mom there are a few things I stopped hoping for years ago.  One, that she would learn to write her name, and two, she would some day be potty trained.  She is the most stubborn person in the world, which is why she is still alive, but she refuses to even get near…

Apparently I’ve gotten lazy?

Jun. 27, 2013

According to my eldest daughter,  all I have done for the past few days is look at pictures on the computer.  Hmmm, gotta love kids/adult kids and their opinions of you.   As you all know Trinity has been away at camp.  The camp posts pictures of the children throughout the day so you can see…

My hair color journey: almost back to blonde!

Jun. 25, 2013

So on top of everything else that happened last week, I had my hair colored again.  I really wanted it blonde before our family portrait so I went to see my sponsor and favorite colorist Tina Scoville Salvucci at the Color Boutique.  She decided  to pack my head full of foils with two different shades…

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
