I don't want to put a pause on the rest of my life; I'm really enjoying getting older and the wisdom that comes from that.

And I think a lot of us have fantasies of going back to where we're from, or when we do go back we're so nostalgic about it.

In parenthood, there's so much fear around parenting in this day and age, and there's so much fear around technology.

I remember one time my cousin telling me - she's got four kids - she would pour the milk down the drain so she could drive to the Dairy Barn just to get out of the house.

There are a lot of blessings from being a big family, but there's also a lot more work. My kids understand that we are a team and we have to work together, so I don't do it all by myself.

People have told me, 'You shouldn't bring your daughter onto the podium, 'cause it's the workplace,' and things like that. But I'm not gonna really listen to that. I'm gonna do what I think is fun for me and my family, and everything'll be all right.

Growing up, I listened and was influenced by a lot of those around me. I have a big family, and my dad listened to '80s music, my mom listened to Motown, my brother listened to reggae, and my granddad was the one that got me into jazz and swing music.

How many people have a family grave in the backyard? I'm sure I'll end up there, or I'll shrink my head and put it in a glass box in the living room. I'll get more tourists to Graceland that way.
