I grew up singing in Kansas. My dad had a band when I was growing up. So I sang in church and school and started singing with his band when I was seven. So I've been singing all my life.

I'm just the instrument for the song to do whatever it's supposed to do-heal, inspire or encourage. It's not all about me, it's about the song. I'm just the lucky girl who gets to sing these songs.

The hard part is choosing to change what needs changing.

You can love someone with all your heart for all the right reasons, and in a moment they can choose to walk away. love 'em anyway.

I really just tried to make a record full of great songs, which is the goal I always have.

I always tell my three daughters, it's not about the number on the scale, it's how you feel. You know you are going to feel better if you eat healthier.

I just love where I am right now in my career.
