why the name? Tatum's Tulips
we received an at birth diagnosis of Down Syndrome when Tatum was born, and dear friend Nicole Emery shared the “Welcome to Holland” poem. it struck a chord and really resonated with us and our new journey.
Welcome to Holland
“ It's just a different place. It's slower-paced than Italy, less flashy than Italy. But after you've been there for a while and you catch your breath, you look around.... and you begin to notice that Holland has windmills....and Holland has tulips. Holland even has Rembrandts.”
Love, Renewal, Optimism
It might not have been what we expected but it has been beautiful. This is where the tulips come into play.
Tulips come in a wide variety of colors, shapes, and sizes, with thousands of cultivars bred over the years just like individuals!
Tulips are widely recognized as symbols of love, renewal, and optimism.
