Introducing my beautiful daughters, the three Graces! Holland is 21, Dulcie is 17, and Brier is 11. They share the middle name Grace and are the “Grace” of Persnickety Grace. They bring joy and drama, the occasional tears, worry, much thankfulness and wonder into our family. They are the truest of southern belles, born and raised in the deep south with all of the lessons and traditions given to me by my mother and grandmothers. They are dancers and artists, pianists, sailors, and scholars. They have strengths and struggles. They are reflections of me and they are their own individual works of art. They are my little women and the inspiration for this blog.
