[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 562998, member: 1514"] DDD, you could most possibly be thinking what my dad thought the first time I brought Tony home...other than the fact there wasnt an age difference. Im sure he thought, omg, I raised my daughter in private schools the first 6 years of her life, I provided the best of the best I could, I worked my fingers to the bone, and she comes home with a country bumpkin! Son of a biscuit eater! LOL. Well, going on 30 years later, me and that country bumpkin are still here. I was raised in upper middle class where I didnt want for anything materialistic and Tony didnt even have running water for most of his life. Somewhere along the way my dad learned to respect Tony because he did his level best to love me and our boys. No things were never perfect and we wanted for things most of our lives. Im very sure it hurt my dad to watch his only child suffer through hard times. I do know that on his death bed he told Tony that he was so glad that he had ended up with him as a son in law. He was proud of him for staying with me and he would leave this earth knowing I was in good hands. Tony does talk like you say this girl talks. He says aint. He has a very southern accent. Ask anyone here who has met him. However you dont know how you will feel about this girl in a few years. You may not trust or much like her now but in a few years she may grow on you. It took my dad at least 5 or more years before he started to trust that Tony was going to stick around. Only then did he start to let the ice thaw. [/QUOTE]
