When she gets back to her home country have her visit the US consulate. She'll fill out and sign a form I-407 and surrender her green card. She'll no longer be a permanent resident.

She needs to surrender her green card with the US embassy when she returns and she can also make an appointment for a tourist visa interview to see if she can get a tourist visa instead, that way she will still be able to travel to the US to see you whenever she can.

Yes but after that you need to think if she will be granted a tourist visa?

With a voluntarily surrendered green card, I'd say it's likely. Surrendering one's Green Card basically removes any presumption of immigrant intent.
