I think there is a time to work, and everyone has to kind of adjust. And then there is a time to relax, and be the mom or take the kids on vacation when you need to wind down. So it is a matter of planning, and being able to map out your year or your week or let's start with the day. It is just being multi-tasking and being available.

Well, my mom taught public school music for almost 40 years. And she is about 5 feet - and very mighty. And she would control her kids a lot by giving them the eye, or the stare.

I think my first big purchase was actually for my mom. She had one of those 90s TVs in her living room that is like a 10x10 brick, so I purchased her a flatscreen for her living room.

My mom's a concert pianist, so she started teaching me when I was around seven. When I was eight, I started writing my own songs, and kinda started putting piano and singing together. But I am trained classically, which is a big influence on me, I think.

We are definitely a hodgepodge of influences. Mine, most heavily, would be Southern rock - the Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd and stuff like that. Hillary is more from the country side - her mom is Linda Davis, a country singer. Dave, he is a big fan of the Eagles and like that.

My mom was the picture of the blue-collar mom: Two and three and four jobs to make sure that me and my sister never needed, that was her thing.

For the first few years of my life my mom used to cut my hair so there were a lot of bowl-cut hair styles.

I was serious about ballet for a long time, but my mom got me into tap and jazz and modern and hip-hop, and I was one of those over-lessoned children.

I am very proud of my mom and consider her the most courageous woman I know. With perseverance, sacrifice and hard work, she raised a family of Olympic athletes and gave us the tools and the spirit to succeed. That is something that my brothers and I will always be thankful for.
