I make a lot of mistakes, too, and I'm constantly re-evaluating how I'm doing things and trying to be better every day, whether it's as a mom or taking care of myself.
My mom used to say that I became a fighter and a scrapper and a tough guy to protect who I am at my core.
Being the only man in the household with my mom definitely helped me grow up fast.
I'm so happy and thankful I made it a point be a stay-at-home mom.
I basically became a cheerleader because I had a very strict mom. That was my way of being a bad girl.
I did find some time to go to a record store and check out 'Headstrong' actually in the racks. It was pretty cool I never thought I'd see my own CD sitting there with everyone else's. I made my Mom ta...
I was blessed, because I come from a family where they knock you down before you float away. I have a lot of brothers who just make sure we have our feet on the ground, and my mom is a rock star. She...

Being a mom makes me feel whole and like I understand the meaning of life.
I think while all mothers deal with feelings of guilt, working mothers are plagued by guilt on steroids!
Mommy smoked but she didn't want us to. She saw smoke coming out of the barn one time, so we got whipped.
I wish I had an extra day with my mom sometimes. Or another hour in the day with my family, husband and children.
When my dad was badly weakened by the flu and my mom wanted to call an ambulance to take him to the emergency room, he wouldn't go unless he could shave first and change into a nice shirt and a pair o...
