Loved ones who have passed over, are often around.  They love us and enjoy being with us.
When I am around a home where the loved one is trying to connect, they will ask my to pass on info.  It's normal. They will flicker lights, make certain scents in the room, like roses.  They will do many things to let their loved one know they are there, they love them and are doing just fine on the other side.

Ask her to tell you something only she could know. Then see if you can confirm the information. Otherwise, we're not sure it's really her.

No matter the outcome, I think there's a connection between you and him.

Sometimes with spirit that have passed you find that they share informetion as they see fit generaly when you yourself have a bit more information to work with that can link with that spirits wishes. Bizare but hey happend that way for me

This subject is very close to my heart but in a slightly different way. I feel that your "new friend" in spirit has chosen you for reasons that will become clear. I know most folk will bang on about all things are done for a reason and we follow a certain path in life. I think you are shown a path its up to you if you take it. In this senario the little girl has chosen you to help her communicate once again with her father. She has also chosen you to maybe keep her father with well chosen company. Finally you have a pychic link with someone who are miles from you this has been achieved because of the daughter. Try to listen to the daughter and work out every detail, also pass every detail on to the father. You never know but the tinyiest detail may have a huge impact and meaning.

Bless you
