A southern girl knows full & well that she can open a door for herself...
but prefers the gentleman do it
because it demonstrates
a sense of respect.
After all,
every girl (young or old)
wants to be treated like a princess.
We know how to make sweet tea
and grits
while filling you in on SEC football.
(the above pictures...are from Hanceville school..not Alabama or Auburn..just want everyone to play pretty, now)
We pick our battles
and fight with the heart of a
pit bull while still
maintaining grace & elegance.
Our mystique is that of a
soft spoken, mild mannered southern belle
who could direct an army,
loves her momma and
will always be
daddy's little girl.

Growing up or
"being raised"
(as we would put it)
in the south my life has been filled with
true southern belles
Many ,through the years ,would come and go only touching the fringes while leaving a finger print on my heart & soul
Still others have stayed through the years enriching me with their
beauty, wisdom, strength and wit.
A few of many
true southern ladies that
have touched my life...
And I thank you !
