Mark Humphrey/AP

When Gary LeVox’s daughter Brittany turned 10 last August, she had one request. “She said, ‘Daddy, can Justin Bieber come to my birthday party?’” the Rascal Flatts singer says. “So we got her this cardboard cutout of him.”

Six months later, LeVox delivered the real thing when the band cut a duet and a video with the teen star, and Brittany and 6-year old Brooklyn tagged along.

“They flipped out — Brittany ended up singing one of his songs to him. He was hugging them and was so sweet to them. I’ve even got a low-grade Bieber fever,” he says. “I think I’m in the running for dad of the year.”

Charlotte, 17 months, is the only child for the actress, 33, and husband Freddie Prinze, Jr.

“My mornings are better because I get to see her. I enjoy coming home. No matter how hard of a day I had, I get to see her little face and everything works out.”

We worry about germs, air quality, vaccinations — but could it be that the things that have potential to hurt us are actually in our homes?

That’s the gist of The Healthy Home, a new book by microbiologist Dr. Myron Wentz and his son, Dave, which explores the hidden dangers in our most sacred spots.

“I debated for a few years if I ever wanted to bring a child into this toxic world,” Dave tells PEOPLE Moms & Babies. “I was worried that the kids we bring in now wouldn’t have a chance. But I didn’t want to be scared, I wanted to be empowered.”
