Music has been one of the most beautiful things in my life and will always be a very big part of who I am and what I do.

We protect aspirin bottles in this country better than we protect guns from accidents by children.

Everybody's not as fortunate as I've been that can have their hubby with them on the road, that we can do whatever we want and mainly be honest with the kids. Just the time that you do give them, make it be great time. It doesn't have to be hours.

I stare to memorize your face, to kiss you in my mind, love you all the time.

The responsibility of carrying and bringing a new life into this world is one that cannot be taken lightly.

When I write a song it's always from the point of view: makes the song the best it can be.
