I agree with Fi. My sister is Marisa's godmother - while she is a bit younger than me, she really believes in what I do parenting wise so it was an easy choice. For someone younger than me she has an amazing start with kids - she's so good with them! I wish I had her experience

As for the godfather, I left that up to John to choose, and being Greek Orthodox, he can't choose his best man (brother), so he chose his best friend, who seems to have disappeared travelling and we haven't seen / heard from since!!! Eek!
