Mr. Got This Under Control

Thomas:  Cora, are you still eating your snack?  You need to go back to the table and sit down.
Me:  Thomas, thank you, but I'll--
Thomas:  It's OK, Mom, I can deal with this.  Cora, you need to sit down.  Do I need to sit on you in your chair?
Cora:  No.
Thomas:  Do I need to take your snack away?
Cora: No.
Thomas:  Well, do you want me to sit at the table with you while you finish?
Cora:  Um, yeah!
Thomas (over his shoulder as he follows her to the table, hands in his little pockets):  See, Mom?  I told you I could deal with this.
