It's only a stuffed toy. But to these 6-year-old twin girls, it meant so much more. And Gray-Gray Mouse couldn't have been picked up by a more empathetic good samaritan.

In Crystal Lake, Illinois, the Estey family was house-hunting. That included the twin daughters. During the course of the day, Gray-Gray somehow managed to fall out of the family car. Well, along comes Christine Granlund, who spots the mouse while stopped at a red light.

Christine remembered how sad she was when she lost a Barbie doll as a kid. So she turns to Facebook and was able to make contact with Mrs. Estey through a local online garage sale page.The twins and Gray-Gray Mouse were reunited the same day.

Gray-Gray was quoted as saying that all the houses the family looked at were cheesy. Therefore all of them were spectacular.
