Tim McGraw shared his appreciation his his wife and daughters in a video posted to his Instagram account, calling them his biggest inspiration. In the video, the country icon was asked what he would consider to be a flex in his world, revealing a sweet tribute to his wife and daughters. McGraw pointed to his mic stand, which has “a little bit of the design of my tattoo on my arm that has all my daughter’s initials and my wife’s initial as well. And it’s on my mic stand all the way around.” He continued, “So whenever I’m losing focus or feel like I’m not having a good night, which has sometimes happened, I’ll look down at my mic stand and that sort of re-gathers me and makes me think of my purpose.” The country singer said his customized mic stand is “kind of a flex in my working world for sure. And it translates into my personal world too because everything I do is for those guys.” McGraw captioned the post, “Even on the road…. My family is my biggest ‘flex’ !!” and teased his tour in the upcoming months.

McGraw tied the knot with Faith Hill in 1996 after meeting at a show. A year later, they welcomed their first daughter, Gracie, followed by their second daughter, Maggie in 1998, and then welcomed their third, Audrey, in 2001. Last year, McGraw opened up about how he and Hill struggled with their daughters growing up and moving out of the house. “It was tough at first, you know. I mean, it’s always harder on Mom than it is on Dad, I think. But… there were a lot of tears,” he said. He shared his experience driving his eldest, Gracie, across the country for her move to Los Angeles, admitting that he was brought to tears. “When I dropped her off, I mean, I just lost it,” he recalled. “And then I had to drive home all by myself… I was crying the whole time.”
