For those of you who's had children before meeting the one that's your wife/husband today...or is married to someone who had a child when you met.
My boyfriend has a child from previous marriage, a 10 year old girl.
I've got nothing but positive words from him about her. I know he is a bit biased..lol but at the same time I know that he wants things to work between me and his daugther.
He also knows that I'm not going to try and be a second mother to her, she's got a mom. What I hope/pray for is to be someone who can encourage her and help her see that she's good enough the way she is and well sort of be there for her whenever she needs someone.
I haven't met her yet but if things goes the way they seem to I will meet her very soon.
And to be honest - I'm very nervous about that. He says I got nothing to be worried about - she's going to love me. But all I can think about is all the what if's.. what if she doesn't like me.. should I really go there for the weekend the first time she and I meet. Is that wise.. etc..
Got any tips??
God bless,
Nilla
