Mr. Bones!!!

So funny story, well traumatizing for a 5 year old.....Shaffen, most of you know him, he occationally speaks without thinking. Last week Covin wouldn't eat his dinner, so Shaffen decided to tell him if he didn't eat he would turn into a skeleton (meaning skinny). Covin FREAKED out. He thought he would turn into a skeleton, I have never seen him eat so fast. It was funny until the tears started to flow! We didn't realize he was so scared of them. So I tried to explain to him that he wouldn't turn into a skeleton, just that dad meant he would get skinny. Anyways, everyday since he has been paranoid about this. Too many questions, so I thinking he would leave me alone kept telling him to go ask dad. Well, Shaffen again made it WORSE, imagine that! Telling him you will only turn into one IF you get old and die!!!! I about lost it! So then he is now worried about dying! So Shaffen again without thinking makes the comment about how OLD he is being 32! So then again Covin FREAKED! So I had to get out a book with numbers in them to explain how many OLD is. Shaffen also told him that ALL of his Grandparents died when they got old....NOW I am trying to explain that our grandparents were WAY older than his. Will this never end, it has been over a week! What a mess!
