I often have at least one, or all of them in tow when I do a show, Dan says, adding that the children are home schooled, and family togetherness is a priority for the Raynors. Tonight Daniel is missing. He is celebrating his birthday with his grandmother and his friends at a hotel with a swimming pool. I got to be the voice of a boy, says Paisley, who then shows her gymnastic skills. Her voice was one of those used in the Legend of Sleepy Hollow adapted by Dan.
