I want to do something special with my step-daughter?

I'm divorcing my husband and I are divoricing. He has a 7 year old daughter and we're really close. I'm moving to LA and she's moving with her dad to Washington State. Her Mom is already up there so she can contuniue having custody over my husband's daughter. I want to do something special since I won't see her for awhile. I leave in two weeks. Her mom says I can visit her whenever, since we're friends, but my husband isn't moving for about four months. Also, I got her Niki, the girl of the year American Girl doll and a lot of outfits and accesories. We live in Connecicut.
I got her Coconut and Licorice too and a few of the books.

Poor little thing, only seven and already two divorces? What's wrong with her Father??? I'd take her out to lunch or dinner, just the two of you and have a talk. Tell her how much you love her and will miss her and how none of this is her fault. Tell her she can come and visit or you will visit her. The gifts are nice too.

I think that you should take her somewhere like to eat and then you should just aske her what she wants to do and do it with her!
Good Luck!!!

take her to a place she'd love to go - zoo, ice cream, shopping, etc. Ask her where and have fun! I'm sure she'll never forget the time she spent with you and always keep in touch with her. God Bless!!

Honestly just stay in touch with her. Call her when you can and email her. Maybe buy her a journal, that is something special she can keep for a long time. I don't think buying her a bunch of stuff is the answer, show her through your actions, by calling etc. rather than buying her things. I have been though divorce and what you have gotten her is enough just don't loose contact with her. Mail is also a fun thing, kids never get letters and so on with the Internet, it makes them feel special and gives them something to look forward to.

Take her for a manicure. Just get her nails shaped and polished. She will enjoy getting girled up.
My sister-in-law did that with my daughter for a part of a bonding day. It worked.

Keep in touch with her ,talk to her on the phone as often as you can, you can also take her to favorite place and take a lot of pictures so she take with her when she leaves
