As we reported earlier, the mother of 8-year-old Daniel Julez Smith Jr. recently canceled her European Summer Tour to be with to her son as she starts a new school and makes new friends.

“I wish I could put in words how much of a difficult decision this was but between moving part-time to a new city, starting my son in a new school, and writing/recording my new record, I really had to make the best decision for my mental/physical health and provide some stability for my family,” she said.
