Ezra the Father Figure

Ezra is being extremely Fatherly right now. We are having some Thai Coconut Soup I made the other night for lunch.
First he said "mom, can I put a bib on Ethne?"
mom: yes
Ezra approaches Ethne not sure how she will react and says "um, mom" (hesitantly) then he boldly declares "um mom, if Ethne says no I can handle it!"
mom: OK

Boys on for seconds and there isn't much left at the bottom of the pot. Enoch didn't want any mushrooms so most of the veggies got dished up to Ezra.
Enoch just said "mom, I didn't get any mushrooms or anything just broth"
Ezra: "Enoch would you like some of MY mushrooms or carrots or something?"
Enoch: "no, I didn't want any"
Ezra: "No THANK you you mean. That is the polite thing to say"
