There are things I've done in the past I'm not proud of - and I could talk about them if I wanted to - but I don't reveal my secrets... I prefer certain things to remain personal; there have to be boundaries. And I don't think you need a scandal to have an interesting story.
When I wake up in a bad mood, I try not to stay in one. Learn to make the best of what you have.
The foundation of family - that's where it all begins for me.
It's okay to take time for yourself. We give so much of ourselves to others and we need to be fueled both physically and mentally. If we are in balance, it helps us in all our interactions.
I think beauty comes from within. If you're happy and look at life in the best way you can, even when there are problems, it can make you beautiful on the outside.
I have worries and fears just like everybody else. But I have every reason to wake up each morning and be very happy.
To be honest, I didn't really understand how involved putting a fragrance together could be - or would be. Once I made the choice to actually do it, I just went for it. I just dove in and have really learned a lot about putting a scent together. It's kind of exciting.
Everybody wants you to do good things, but in a small town you pretty much graduate and get married. Mostly you marry, have children and go to their football games.
Children are easily influenced, and I always want to do things I can be proud to show my kids someday.
I try to find a reason to laugh each day. Somehow, if you can incorporate laughter into your day, every day, it really helps. It's the little things in life that make me happy.
Country music is the people's music. It just speaks about real life and about truth and it tells things how they really are.
Reba is very, very close to everyone around her. She's a classy lady.
When you're a mom to three children, nothing bothers you. Trust me. Who cares what people say? I've got other things to deal with.
The hardest thing for me is planning ahead. My mom was brilliant at it.
Nashville was totally different than I ever dreamed. I had only seen the music business on television and been to a couple of concerts. I had no clue.
I don't want to sound like a Hallmark card, but to be able to wake up each day with food and shelter, that alone is good. Forget aging and the fact that my butt is becoming a little more familiar with my knees than my tailbone. If you are six feet above ground it's a good day. So, give me more!
I can't even say what my greatest fear is because I, I can't even imagine. Being without my family... I can't even say it because it makes me cry.
I drink a lot of water and I never leave the house without putting on moisturizer and lip gloss.
I was adopted into this incredible home, a loving, positive environment, yet I had this yearning, this kind of darkness that was also inside me.
I grew up asking for everything under the sun for Christmas, but I knew I wasn't going to get it all.
