The Flaky Toothfairy

There once was a boy named Kaleb who was so excited about losing his tooth.  What kid isn't?  The toothfairy must have been busy because she didn't show up that night. (Gasp!)  The next morning his mom told him that sometimes the toothfairy is really busy but she would come that night.  Although his mom suspects he knows the secret he still played along.  He seemed appeased by this, knowing his money would be coming....eventually.  Well, if you can believe it, that flaky toothfairy forgot again.  The next morning Kaleb told his mom, with disappointment in his eyes, that the toothfairy had forgotten again! The mom quickly ran up to her room to retrieve something.  She then ran to his room and searched hurriedly around his bed while secretly slipping something in between the mattress and the wall.  She then said, "Hey Kaleb, come here!  Look, the toothfairy did come.  The money just fell between the mattress and the wall!"  He was very happy that the toothfairy didn't forget again. The toothfairy is so organized and on top of things.  She is never overwhelmed and frazzeled so she would never have really forgotten a second time.;)
