I've been looking for a wooden dollhouse for our granddaughter: she's been carrying around a few miniature furniture pieces and she organizes things. So I thought a dollhouse might be fun for her.
We never got a callback from the people with this one.
I was really disappointed. It looked like exactly what I wanted.
Today I browsed CL again. For half the price (and half the distance of travel), I saw something else:
The seller happily included TWO dollhouses (the small one on the right is like the original one; the big one is 2 1/2 feet tall!), furniture, dolls, stairs, a garage, a truck, and other extras ... for $25.
Like every other blessing God pours out, this was undeserved. Unexpected. And completely cool. A little detail gone completely over-the-top.
All of us have memories of God's surprises. What favorite gift or occasion still reminds you of God's interest and love?
