Meet the Octopus. the only thing my nephew Tristan asked for at Christmas. I found and ordered this little fella off the internet. The joy and excitement on his face when he opened it was worth the world. He is rarely without it. It is his best friend. He tries to take it to school, but mom puts the nix on that so he usually sits it in their bay window as he walks out he front door for school. Well, their dog Wednesday decided to use the favored Ollie as a chew toy. Tristan laid on his bed with the mauled Octopus next to him and cried for over an hour. I was ready to get back on line and get a new one stat. My sister Terri came to our rescue and said she would fix it for him. Tristan was hopeful and asked "is aunt Terri a fixer?" I said "yes she is". So, this morning, Aunt Terri saved the day and stuffed and sewed the Octopus back together. He is as good as new with just a few little scars. Tristan came to pick him up and is now reunited with his bff. It's good to have a fixer in the family!
