When my grandad died it was the first time me and my 4 sisters and I had lost someone close to us, at the funeral we were all upset my mum tried to comfort us in a group hug and said a line which I will never forget, "At times like this I wish I was an octopus" it made us all laugh out loud through the tears and we all felt loved.
For my Mother's Day card for my mum this year I made it, it's a picture of an octopus holding 8 hearts, on each arm has all her daughters and 3 grandchildren's names.
For my Mother in laws card I did cross stitch Happy Mother's Day and felt flowers.
