No worries, I think you have to get a few more points to your name then you get the privilege of using the edit button - so keep up the good work. (just a little correction - you are a kiwi?) I surely am, thank you for noticing :) - Kiwi-Girl, May 30, 2011

These are all very good answers. But I am more accustomed to saying al ver instead of una vez. The latter is much more common in English. As a result, I would say, Al ver a tu hija por primera vez, yo sé que te vas a enamorar de ella y que vas a apreciar cada momento que compartas con ella, y no importan los errores, ella siempre te amará y te querrá en su vida, espero que te des cuenta.

I changed the form to que te because it keeps it in the same future conditional tense of the beginning. I used al ver a tu hija por priimera vez because this means once you see your daughter for the first time. Also compartas keeps the same sweet tone and means the same as spend with.

Cuando conozcas a tu hija, vas a enamorarte de ella y vas a adorar cada momento que pases con ella y no importarán los errores, ella siempre te va a amar y va a desear que te quedes en su vida. Espero que te des cuenta de eso.

Tan pronto como veas a tu hija por primera vez, estoy seguro de que te enamorarás de ella y apreciar cada momento que pasan juntos.

(just an attempt though, better wait for a native smile )

Almost right. You need to put apreciar in future tense and pasar in the subjunctive. - gintar77, May 30, 2011
Espero que usted sepa que su hija le va a encantar desde el primer momento que usted la conoce. Usted va a apreciar cada momento que pasa con ella. Despues de cualquier error, ella le seguirá amando a usted. - stellita7211, Jun 1, 2011
thats not right:( - stellita7211, Jun 1, 2011

Una vez que veas tu hija por la primera vez, estoy seguro de que vas a enamorar con ella y tener mucho cariño a ella.

I'm not sre this is 100% correct. I'm just trying it to compare with others.
