    A 10-year-old girl named Emma from Cypress, Texas, was recently surprised with the doll of her dreams, thanks to her parents and a company called A Step Ahead Prosthetics.
     
    "You gotta be kidding me," Emma said excitedly as she rips the doll out of the package. Emma then burst into tears as she hugs the doll.
     
    "It's got a leg like me," Emma yells as she held the doll. "I love you."
