Very "cute" doll house story!

I loved this story! It's about two friends who meet an old lady with a doll house in her bay window. The two friends become friends with this old lady, and often play with the dollhouse. Then one day, she dies but, it isn't sad, it's actually a very surprising ending! Very cute! I wish I had thought of this!
