“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.

Where are all the chemicals in this house?

Apr. 27, 2012

  I guess, this week is all about Mother’s and Daughter’s because everything that keeps happening is centered around this theme.  Well, today my Mom, whom we call Nana, offered to come watch Tiara and my sick little muffin, Trinity while I ran to Costco.  Trinity was home with a allergy attack, which consists of…

like mother like daughter…

Apr. 26, 2012

      So, I guess as much as we don’t want to look like our parents or act like our parents, sometimes it is just inevitable.  I was really in a funk today thinking about what I wanted to write in my blog.  I had a great walk with one of my close friends,…

Is this my garage, or the dump?

Apr. 25, 2012

    Why is it that everything broken, needs to be taken to the Goodwill, all the sporting equipment, extra household supplies, wrapping supplies, craft items and everything else you can’t find a place for inside the house winds up in the garage?  Obviously, the answer is because there is no where else to put…

big tiff got a new purse!!!!

Apr. 24, 2012

    Growing up in my family, I learned there were certain things you must have, must do and must not do.   Always make your bed, never leave a glass on a wood piece of furniture,  pick up the lints on the carpet before you go to school  always have art on the walls, …

7 day suspension from adding friends on Facebook!!!!

Apr. 22, 2012

  Ok, I have never received a detention or suspension in my whole life as a student and guess what?  Today, when I woke up and logged onto Facebook to put up my morning status, a notice was waiting for me.  Facebook informed that I was on a 7 day suspension from adding new friends….

where is tiffani?

Apr. 21, 2012

  Today, Tiara came up with a new game before her nap time.  She thought it would be really funny to start putting necklaces and bows on me, which is pretty normal for her but then she started burying me alive with all her toys.  The more she covered me up, the funnier she thought…

What do you eat for lunch? This is my lunch almost everyday…..

Apr. 20, 2012

  Before the blog, I was known for making super extravagant salads at lunch time.  I would roast and saute veggies and make super yummy concoctions, while Tiara was sleeping.  Once she woke up from her nap everything would be done and we would sit down and eat lunch together.  Lately, I haven’t wanted to…

my favorite rose bush…..

Apr. 19, 2012

  This is my absolute favorite rose bush of all time.  When we bought this house 10 years ago, I was so excited to have “land”, that is an actual front and backyard, I became a gardening geek.  I spent all my free time researching roses, flowers, trees, and garden design.  I drew up designs…

How did this happen?

Apr. 18, 2012

    This is one of my best friends from college, Laura.  She was, note the emphasis on was, an amazing graphic designer in her day.   She has 4 girls and as a result hasn’t worked in 15 years.  I have been bugging her about my logo for my blog, because I don’t have…

Why do I even bother?

Apr. 17, 2012

    Have you ever done something nice for someone and then immediately regretted it?  That is how I felt today.  Spring Break was so long and now that everyone, except TT and I were finally back to work and school, I thought it would be nice to do something new with Tiara.  She is always…

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
