Once upon a time in a tiny townhouse far, far, away there lived a mom, dad, baby, and two cats. For many nights the mommy stayed awake for many hours of the night.
First, the little baby was either too hot or too cold, hungry, wet, or had a tummy ache. So the mommy (and sometimes daddy) would have to wake up and help the little baby.
Second, the daddy made very loud noises from his nose. When the mommy would come back from feeding the baby the loud dragon noises that the daddy would make kept mommy awake.
Third, the cats thought that meowing would help their mommy sleep. They would jump on the bed by mommy's head and try to sing her a lullaby to sleep but they didn't realize that their singing was actually keeping her awake instead of helping her fall asleep.
Last night, something very special happened. The sleep fairy came to the tiny townhouse. She watched over the baby all night and made sure he didn't have a tummy ache and kept his blanket perfectly snuggled by his face so he felt secure. If he got to warm she opened the window just a crack to let in some cool breezes. Then she closed it so he didn't get too cold. While the baby slept she flew around the living room while the cats chased her until they got so tired that they fell asleep on the chair and didn't make a peep until morning. Finally, she gave the daddy a magic strip to put on his nose so he didn't make dragon noises.
And they slept happily ever after. At least until the next time the sleep fairy goes on vacation.
