Sometimes it's not always perfect, and there are mistakes, and you pick yourself up and move on. I've learned you can't be a perfectionist. I still strive to do my best in every area, but I've learned to let go.

My family has always called me 'Lay Lay,' and my dad used to always call me 'Dynamite Termite' because I was really short and small and I hated to be still. I would never stop.

We always do a white elephant gift exchange on Christmas Eve, but my mom always gets really nice gifts for it. And we hang out in our PJs on Christmas Day.

I hope maybe I'll be in a Christmas movie that becomes part of someone's holiday tradition.
