A little girl. A familiar feeling.
Meet Christy.
She has two homes and one very big heart.
Life with Mommy feels one way. Life with Daddy feels another. Christy loves them both deeply, but moving between her two homes sometimes brings feelings that are difficult to explain.
Her story meets those feelings with warmth, honesty, and hope. It doesn't ask children to take sides or make one household seem better than the other.
A child's heart has room for both.

More than a bedtime story
A gentle way to begin
A gentle way to begin
the conversation.

Look Inside the Story
For the feelings they can't quite explain
Sometimes, the hardest feelings have no words yet.
One home has one set of routines. The other feels different. Pickups can be exciting, goodbyes can be hard, and a child may feel caught somewhere in the middle.
- Different routines. Getting used to different expectations in each home.
- Missing someone. Loving time with one parent while missing the other.
- A big question. Wondering if it's okay to love both parents just as much.
Two Homes, One Heart opens the door to those conversations through a story children can understand and families can share.
A small moment. An important connection.
Give them language for what's underneath.
Children don't always say, “I feel torn between my parents.” Sometimes their emotions show up as silence, tears, frustration, or resistance on transition days.
This story gives caring adults a gentle opportunity to pause, read together, and ask a question without rushing the answer.
-
“Did any part of Christy's story feel familiar to you?”
-
“How do you feel when it's time to change homes?”
-
“What helps you feel comfortable in both places?”
-
“Is there anything you wish the grown-ups understood?”
The goal isn't to force a conversation. It's to make room for one.

Step into Christy's world.
Make room for the familiar moments, big feelings, and reassuring message at the heart of her story.
