I didn't even think she could see the baby doll from where she was walking in the street...She asked me if she could buy the doll because earlier that week she had denied her daughter a different kind of baby doll. She said it was because she didn't have the money earlier in the week but wanted to surprise her little girl now that she had the money. I said I wasn't going to sell the doll but told her she could just HAVE it!
Material things come and go in and out of people's lives but they aren't necessarily for us, I think sometimes we are meant to pass it on to someone who needs it.
I started to put the doll in a bag for her when she asked if she could leave it in the shop since she was on her way to pick up her daughter. She wanted to bring the little girl here for the surprise. Of course! I'm always down for a surprise. :0)
I put myself in this little girl's shoes and thought if I were denied a doll earlier in the week, to receive one now would be a total surprise and an amazing one!
When she and her mom returned to the shop I told the little girl that someone had left something very special for her.
Have an amazing day!
