Day Four....the symbol of the octopus....

Aidan had an experience swimming with an octopus so that is the symbol that I've added today, in the circle around her head.  In ancient times, the octopus was thought to be a sign of good luck and protection.  I have added strips of tissue paper with words on them onto her wings....words to live by..... and dots over the bees that look to me like their hives...the bees are safe in their homes.  Her eyes have opened more....
