Dp has a 7yr old dd who lives with her mum in Paris. He see's her about 6/8 times a year and supports her financially(we have limited finances so he can't visit more often). Her mum has only recently decided to allow her to come here so happily she is coming at the begining of next month
I am really delighted that she is going to meet her little sister( my dd) although they have seen each other via webcam and dp and dss are all really, really excited about it.
I think it should all go ok but the problems I forsee are that firstly she has limited english and I have limited French, dss can speak french but will be at school during the days, dp has limited french and will be at work during the days. I'm going to get a computer programme that can translate so hopefully it will be ok.
Secondly although they know about each other(and are enthusiastic about each other) I'm a little wary about how the girls will actually get on.
French dsd loves her dad and is used to getting all his attention in the limited time they spend together, he's her special dad and may well think of herself as his special dd iyswim. She may be a little jealous of a cute toddler who also is used to getting all his attention.
She may not be, I may be thinking myself into a muddle but dp doesn't like me raising my concerns so I'm sounding off here.
I'm being silly aren't I?
