Not that she is really that bad. My dad does not approve of all the funky hair colors and clothes she wears. I got to be the scandalous one a few years ago however when I got pregnant with my son. And I wasn't married or planning on getting married. GASP!!! Actually my family was very supportive but I could still tell that it embarassed my Dad to no end. But he loves his grandson and would not give anything for him.Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07064100581854048731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2317757298707703398.post-56357857624144625382008-10-31T09:11:00.000-04:002008-10-31T09:11:00.000-04:00Scandalous is sometimes in the eye of the beholder...Scandalous is sometimes in the eye of the beholder.
