Ever since I was a little girl my dream was to sing. You could turn on Tiffany or Mariah Carey and just watch me go! In my mind being just like them would be the greatest accomplishment ever!
Singing goes way back in my family-- My Granny's side of the family had singers all over, and my Grandaddy's side- well I think every single Dumas child grew up singing, and this is just my mom's side of the family. My Dad's side, well most of them can sing too, just might be in a different language sometimes. :) Music is definitely in my genes!
Growing up I did have the chance to do more than most with my music. I was given opportunities that I am still very thankful for. My mom was definitely my biggest fan. She did all she could for me to get to live out a dream that I grew up always wanting. The music industry is a harsh reality, believe me. People can make you second guess yourself in every way possible, from what you wear, to how long your hair is, to your weight. You think middle school kids are mean and critical until you start down a path in this business. I was starting to try and take it all a little more serious, but then it all just went away.
17 years old and suddenly I'm becoming a mommy. Always wanted to be a mommy for sure, but at 17?? Well long story short- Tanner Posey came into my life Sept 27th of 2003 and ever since I looked into those big blue eyes, I was never the same again.
Here I am 3 kids later and I wouldn't change a thing. Dreams change, and they do when you don't even realize it. Like the Bible says, For I know the plans I have for you. I am so honored that he planned to send me these 3 little angels. They Bless my life every single day. When I sing to Tanner, he tells me I should go to Hollywood. When I sing to Makayla she tells me I sing like the most beautifulest singer in the world.(lol) and Landon, well he doesn't have to say anything bc when I sing to him he just stares at me with those beautiful blue green eyes and I melt. I may not be singing to thousands on a big stage somewhere, but I sing to the best audience a girl could ever have.
