ABOUT ME
Hi, I'm Grace. I am a military spouse and mom of two military brats, age 2 and 4. Being a military spouse has its hardships such as constant uprooting and lack of identity. This also means difficulty in starting and building up a career that will stick. It also has its benefits such as the fact that not many can say they have traveled all around the world with both young children as a family! As a military family, we have endured and survived many obstacles that the majority of society can only try to understand. Sometimes it can feel isolating because not even our own family can comprehend our unique problems. Luckily, I have met and become friends with real awesome military spouses.

I want to thank my military wife friend Christel Amorosi for teaching me how to crochet in the first place! She is ever so patient. Feel free to stalk me at www.facebook.com/allthingsbygrace to get the latest update on what I am creating next and/or what my shop looks like at www.allthingsbygrace.etsy.com!

Besides crochet, I write children's story books with applied psychotherapy for children with emotional behavioral disorders. I do so with my illustrator and childhood best friend, Sandi Michael Desai. We just published our first children's book together and it is called, Don't Be Afraid. Look it up under author lastname, Johnsen or illustrator lastname, Desai. It is now on sale on Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com, and other bookstores worldwide. Learn more of the overview of Don't Be Afraid from any of these sites.

Overall, if you have not already noticed, my work is inspired by my children as they get older. I write children's books to cater to audience in their age group. I also crochet pretty accessories that look nice on my children. It only made sense to me to share that creativity with everyone else.

Thank you, everybody!
