We got our oldest this necklace (https://www.etsy.com/shop/JanelleRaeJewelry) for when daddy is gone this year. Something to wear and hold, that tangible symbol of the love and bond they share. She is out of state visiting family right now so they said goodbye today. It's always heartbreaking when it's time to part ways but knowing how long it is this time makes it especially difficult.
I think something to hold onto will help her some, those moments you miss that bond and need to reconnect. She also has a special journal to write in while he's gone that is geared towards military kids. As they get older it gets so much harder I think.
