A little promise they can wear close to their heart.
 
Some goodbyes are simply too big for little hearts.
 
And sometimes, when we don't have the perfect words to explain what it means to love someone we may not always be able to see, we can give them something they can hold onto:
 
I will always find my way to you.
This little sea turtle was created to carry that promise.
Maybe this shirt is being given by a mom or dad who knows a difficult goodbye is coming. Maybe it's from a grandparent who wants their grandchild to always remember how deeply they are loved. Maybe a child is already missing someone who has passed away. Or maybe they're grieving the furry best friend who grew up right beside them.
 
However it finds its way to them, the message is the same.
 
The ones we love are never far away.
It can find us in memories. In dreams. In a familiar song. In butterflies, feathers, seashells, little coincidences and moments that somehow feel like more.
 
And just like a tiny sea turtle instinctively knows how to find its way home, love has a way of finding its way back to us, too.
 
The watercolor turtle carries a tiny heart on its shell as it swims through soft ocean blues and bubbles beneath the words:
 
I WILL ALWAYS
FIND MY WAY
TO YOU
 
A message simple enough for a child to understand, but big enough to carry with them for years.
Before giving it to them, you might even make your own little promise together. Tell them what signs to watch for. Choose something that will mean I'm still with you. And someday, when they spot it unexpectedly, perhaps they'll remember the words on their little turtle:
 
I will always find my way to you.
Because sometimes what a child needs most isn't an explanation for goodbye.
It's a reminder that love is always here.
