Zaney and the Whale
Faith and Zane

Back when Zane was still swimming the mighty sea of amniotic fluid Faith would sing a little ditty to him whenever she soaked in the tub.

"Zaney in the Whale"

She told folks it was from that song, Simi and the Whale, and while it didn't ring a bell at the time I didn't give it much thought. This morning while writing this entry I went to search for the lyrics/artist to provide a link. Turns out the song is by Rusted Root and that Faith suffered a very common Misheard Lyric for the song, "Send Me On My Way."

Which is ok, we still sing it to him and have made up a whole bunch of lyrics just for Zane. In one of them he heads out to sail with his fishing pail and ends up in a whale, it's a tall, tall tale.

It all started when I tried to GET OUT of the tub. Now, any woman who has ever been pregnant who soaks in the tub knows that getting out can be a challenge. And struggling to lift that whale belly Just makes one look at it from a closer perspective. It just LOOMS. It just WEIGHS. It just WHALES. Zaney in the whale!
