That's the hardest thing about being a mom. You want to be cool, and you want them to like you all the time, but you can't always have that. You're gonna have times where you have to say no, and you won't be the most popular person in the house.

I think we should all be tolerant of each other and embrace each others' strengths and differences and uniqueness and beauty.

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

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.

I obviously love to sing, it's my passion, as is being a mom. Those are the two things that pretty much consume my every day and so I want to keep doing that as long as I can.

I make our family traditions a priority.

I like the creativity of planning a party, or cooking and taking care of people, creating a memorable meal or event.
