Fart on Me

The other day when we were singing "Slippery Fish" it got to the end where the whale burps and says, "Pardon me." Eliza said, "Mom, why does the whale say, "Fart on me?" I tried to explain that it was pardon me with a P sound and that meant excuse me. I thought she understood until yesterday when one of the kids burped and I reminded them to say excuse me. Eliza said, "Or you could say fart on me!" I thought she was saying it just to be funny (which it was), but as I reminded her about how it is PPPpardon me she said, "Oh yeah." The world through the eyes of a child.
