I remember, the first time I came to the United States in 1996, I didn't speak a word of English at the beginning. I am very thankful for this country and the opportunity music has given me... My three kids were born here in Miami; they speak Spanish at home, but English with all their friends.

I've developed a fun text when a friend has just had a baby. I ask a classic question: 'Are you sleeping?'

It's then when I swoop in: 'It'll all be worth it when they're softly stroking your hair as you slip into oblivion.'
