There was a period of time when I first moved to Nashville, like the first couple of years, that I was just simply lost. I didn't know who I was; I didn't know really what I was doing here. I was meant to be a singer, but I just felt lost. That's when I went on the search for my birth family.

My goal as an artist is to always be true to who I am and give my fans music they will enjoy for a lifetime

This may sound funny, but I feel my most beautiful when I'm clean, fresh out of the bath. I don't have to be dressed up. I could be in comfy clothes at home hanging out with my family.

I know one of the reasons God gave me kids was to test my patience.

I'm very competitive but in a very nice way

Tim has given me confidence and strength and my foundation. He makes me feel like I can conquer the world.

I think beauty comes from within. If you're happy and look at life in the best way you can, even when there are problems, it can make you beautiful on the outside.
