Wearing a bikini on a magazine cover is my 41st birthday present to myself.

When you're a mom to three children, nothing bothers you. Trust me. Who cares what people say? I've got other things to deal with.

I'm such a happy, easygoing person.

Nashville was totally different than I ever dreamed. I had only seen the music business on television and been to a couple of concerts. I had no clue.

I have this strength that comes from knowledge.

You can't sit back. My husband and I have made the choice that our marriage is the most important thing to us. We respect what we have and understand how we need to feed it.

I didn't realize that everyone was so attracted to my hair. I thought, well what about my music?
