He's listening!

A few days ago, Noah, Claire, and I were sitting at the table getting ready to eat. Claire was being a little impatient and making a low whining noise. Evidently, this did not impress Noah a bit because he said to her, "Cwy me a wiva, Cair." (Translation: Cry me a river, Claire.)

Doug and I have been known to say this to express our lack of sympathy for a child's plight. I have to say I'm a little impressed that Noah picked up on that and applied it to a different situation.
