You are a freakin' genius. In one fell swoop you answered the two questions I've been asking myself which are:
1) What do you get if you grow-up bunny?
2) Who is the woman who is not the mother but not the lioness since the lioness is really pretty masculine?
Also, I was actually thinking that it had to be some sort of water animal. The swan is perfect because bunny is a little girl dressed in pink with her hair up in a ponytail at ballet class and the swan could be the prima ballerina or the ballet teacher with her hair up in a chignon dressed in white. The swan is also the woman who makes love to the man who is not the father. Also the swan grows from the bunny through intuition, like the monkey grows to the lioness through curiosity or the hunt for knowledge and these are my two strongest traits. What an elegant solution. I can't thank you enough.
