wise daughter mother
For 10 years, I'd been working as a freelance writer and editor, making money but not a living. It was a good arrangement family-wise, allowing me to stay home with our daughter, but not so great financially or, sometimes, ego-wise.
daughters strongly
Body-shaming is something I feel really strongly about. I think about my niece, I think about my friends who have daughters being on the Internet and reading these things, and it just makes me furious. It makes me so angry.
daughter style age
I told [my daughter Amy] at an early age that she had a good ear. But I didn't influence her music much. She's pretty much developed her style on her own, and she's a talented songwriter.
husband love might save
I save her marked-up manuscripts as an unluckier husband might save love letters.
music thinking cherish-every-moment
For me to be able to reach out to other people throughout all this has been great, people want to hear from me and hear my music right now so it keeps me happy. I cherish every moment. I have a different perspective on everything now. In the end, I think it will make me a better person.

We felt that under the First Amendment free speech protections that we did not have the right to, based on content, refuse the ad.
along federal happy law position state
We're very happy with the decision. It reinforces our position all along ? that the federal law supersedes state law.
movies people
I've worked on movies where there's all these people coming and going, and I don't even know who they are.
bats inside jackets time turned woke
It was time for a rally, we turned our jackets inside out and from there our bats woke up.
bit game
It was a little bit of nerves. It was our first game back here and we were anxious.
accepting college coming huge junior looking owe straight team
It was a huge play for me because I really owe a lot to the team by accepting me coming straight from junior college and just looking at me as a leader.
