Meeting his son for the first time

09/30/08 04:59 AM

Hi All,
My boyfriend is recently divorced, and has a three-year-old adorable son who he sees every other weekend and one night per week.
We don't hang out on the nights he has his son since his child has not met me yet, and I also know how important it is for them to have their one-on-one time (they adore each other, it's so cute!).
Here is my question: when the time does come to meet him, is there anything special I can do to make the meeting go smoothly? I am trying to be sensitive to a 3-year-old's feelings and I therefore don't want to risk doing anything to upset or confuse him - any suggestions?
I have already bought him a couple gifts (he doesn't know they are from me specifically, just from "Daddy's friend") so I know that once he finds out it is ME who is the friend, it can be a jumping off point...
Knowing how fragile and precious children are, I just want to make sure I do this the right way.
Any advice?
