Tiara, 11 years old, TX

Wish submitted by:

Tiara, who is new to foster care, carries a tender heart that yearns for the warmth of familial bonds, especially missing her siblings dearly. In the midst of this transition, she finds solace and joy in two cherished activities—playing with dolls and dancing. Through her dolls, Tiara explores the realm of imagination, creating a comforting world that reflects the love and connection she holds dear. Dancing becomes a form of expression for Tiara, allowing her to channel her emotions into graceful movements, perhaps providing a sense of familiarity and comfort during this period of adjustment. Despite the challenges, Tiara's love for play and dance showcases her resilience and the potential for finding joy in moments of self-expression and creativity.

Tiara has a special wish for headphones this Christmas, and the reason lies in her desire to create a personal space of comfort and solace. While adjusting to foster care and missing her siblings, headphones represent a means for Tiara to retreat into a world of her own. Whether she wants to listen to music, enjoy stories, or simply find moments of tranquility, headphones become a valuable tool for Tiara to navigate her emotions and create a sense of personal sanctuary. This thoughtful gift reflects her longing for a space where she can find joy, solace, and perhaps a connection to the familiar sounds that bring comfort during this time of change.
