How do I approach my sister about being my nieces godmother?

[nadellii]

I would love to be my nieces god mother…but I don’t want to put pressure on her. Is it okay to ask?? Or is it straight up rude

It really depends on the type of relationship you have with your nieces parents...I would just ask, but again this is a personal thing for sure! Not sure if anyone else has advice to give you here...

Generally, you look outside of the family for godparents because you want to grow your family, but you know your sister best so you should ask if you think she'd be okay with you asking. You could try asking her if she has found a nouno/nouna for daughters and then go from there.

That is a beautiful way to look at it thanks for sharing that perspective. I will likely do the same for my family whenever that happens, God willing

Just tell her you want to be the God mother and I won't take no as an answer. Then take control of the whole christening. That's the way

I would personally find a nice way to ask. Just ask them to consider you for it because you know you'd be great at it!
