I could have probably raised them in L.A. and they would have been great and had so many things at their fingertips and been exposed to so many things. But we travel a lot, so I don't think that moving out of town is sheltering the girls at all. Maybe protecting them a little bit more, trying to prolong their youth.
I worked as a secretary, a waitress and a dance teacher - all in high school.
I love kids and children, and I love being a mom.
My mom really instilled in me that I'm beautiful and I can do anything, and I echo that now with my own girls.
I'm one of those women who likes to chat and share knowledge and pass it around.

My dad's passion was to teach adults to read so they could read to their kids.
