My lovely godchild is 7 and when she was born I looked for a lovely present to give her, ran out of time eventually after finding nothing that I thought would suit...so I set up a little bank account for her. I put £10 in every month. I told her mum who is my best friend that I was setting it up.
Now seven years later I have three dcs and my best friend is godmother to one. She gave him a beautiful gift for christening present. It was only then I started worrying - what happens when dgd gets her cash? I don't want her mum to be offended or to feel she needs to give something to my ds. It will be a lot of money, and I am less pressured money wise than my friend. I am really feeling like i have screwed up and created a potential problem for the future.
So any thoughts on what i might do? It crossed my mind to say it to her but she is the sweetest kindest person you could meet and i am worried she might feel obliged to give my dc something. She is my most important friend and i would never want anything to come between us. Thank you
