#1. Care packages. Letters. Postcards. Phone calls. Skypes. Emails. Texts.
#2. Come and visit when she makes it anywhere in your home country. She's traveled a long way just to get there; you can manage the rest.
#3. Figure out the time difference on your own and simply say "can I call at 8 pm your time?" instead of waiting for her to mangle the math.
#4. Save a box of Girl Scout cookies in the freezer for her.
#5. Send pictures she can sticky tack up on the walls.
#6. Pray for her.
#7. Comment on her blog ... positively.
#8. Secretly deposit money into her bank account.
#9. Forgive her when she accidentally stands up your skype date.
#10. Come visit.
#11 - 100. Repeat #1-10 nine times.
#101. Don't forget her.

Especially with her birthday coming up soon. It takes some pre-planning to make sure the cards arrive on time from another continent.
YES!!! What a good mother I have! :) She even remembers my birthday when I'm far away!
How could I forget it? You are so clever with these subtle reminders!
