“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.

Look what I’ve been doing…

May. 05, 2014

This has been my life since Friday night when we decided to put our house back on the market in exactly one week.  No, we don’t want to move, but this is life and you don’t always get what you want.  Yes, my house looked nice before but do people want green and blue rooms…

Stress, the couch and Tiara strikes again!

May. 02, 2014

So today Tt and I made a video because we were bored and I felt too sick to do much else.  She loves to make and watch videos.  This one isn’t super great, but whatever, it’s us at home doing what we always do. If you want to watch it, click this link. Right now…

The IEP, the wind and more….

May. 01, 2014

If you are a subscriber to my blog, I hope this arrived in your email inbox today.  If not, clearly I have another issue to fix.  I posted on Monday and Tuesday and apparently Mail Chimp claims they sent out my feed but I never received the email, nor did anyone else as far as…

Where is my snack?

Apr. 29, 2014

Today I sent Trinity to school without a drink.  I guess for most kids that wouldn’t be a tragedy but Trinity always run close to dehydration because she refuses to drink enough so I kinda panicked when I realized my mistake.  When I was fixing her lunch I went into the garage to grab her…

If you don’t have anything nice to say then…..

Apr. 28, 2014

Don’t say anything at all.  I’m sure you have heard this phrase over and over again and it is the reason I have been a little lax in my posting schedule.  I don’t have much nice to say about my life right but because I don’t want to totally leave you in the dark on…

Her confession…

Apr. 24, 2014

Trinity spent most of her morning in her bedroom trying to reorganize her room, so she could make more space for her dollhouse building.  An impossible challenge but for some reason she was inspired to tackle this project. At 1:15pm  I told her she had to emerge from the chaos because she had an appointment. …

Why do I always have water in my ear?

Apr. 23, 2014

I know this may sound crazy but almost every time I take a shower I get water in my ear and it never seems to come out.  I swear I can barely hear out of my left ear.  Yesterday Tabitha was sitting on my left side and we were trying to have a conversation and…

Hmmmm….

Apr. 22, 2014

Well, it has been an exhausting 5 days.  I mentioned to you a week ago that I have been dealing with some things I’m not a liberty to discuss with you, which is what I did all of last week and part of today.  It is hard for me because I can’t unload on you…

California sushi bowl…

Apr. 18, 2014

This recipe was inspired by Tiara’s obsession with eating California rolls.  Tiara loves California rolls which is great, but in order for her to feel satisfied she needs to eat 2 large containers from Ralph’s market or approximately 20 pieces.  Please don’t even talk to me about how crazy it is because I know it…

The people watcher

Apr. 17, 2014

Yesterday as I was dropping Trinity off at school in the drive through lane I noticed an adorable little girl exiting the car in front of us.  She hopped out of a black BMW with windows tinted so dark I couldn’t tell if the driver was a male or a female.  I suspect the little…

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
