With my daughter, we do arts and crafts, we read a lot, we listen to music, and we cut the strings off balloons and bounce them around after birthday parties.

When someone asks if you'd like cake or pie, why not say you want cake and pie?

I have three siblings. My sister makes music. My older brother is a classical conductor, and my younger brother is a mixing engineer.

When I grew up we had gym at school, two or three dance classes after school, ice skating lessons, and all sorts of sports at our finger tips. We weren't glued to computers because they didn't exist, so being active was all we knew.

The guys in my band are great-we watch movies, we eat pizza, take walks, read books. Everybody has a really great sense of humor. And my boyfriend comes and visits me on the road.

Some of us hover when we weep for the other who wasdying since the day they were born.
