If You Went To Your Closet Today,

In The Past, When I'd Recorded During A Break In A Tour, It Was So Easy To Sing, Because I Felt Strong. Also, Like So Many New Mothers, I Wasn't Getting A Lot Of Sleep, And Sleeping Is Such A Huge Part Of Being Able To Sing.

Depending On What Day Of The Week It Is And What Time Of The Month It Is, I'm A Good Friend Or Not A Good Friend. I'm More Or Less A Good Mom Or Not A Good Mom, More Or Less A Good Mate Or Not A Good Mate. That's Just Life, Whether Or Not You're Public.

But To Make A Holiday Record That Involves Favorite American Songs And Then Also Get To Sing About Jesus Birth, It Just Seemed Like A Real Easy, Subtle Way To Combine A Couple Of Things That I Love.

I Think A Woman Can Have All Of The Ideas And Mental Pictures. She Can Be A Real Planner And A Motivator. But In The End, I Think A Woman Does Best When She Responds To A Man.

But My Experience Is That People Who Have Been Through Painful, Difficult Times Are Filled With Compassion.
