Dreaming of sleeping well

So for the past year Alan has not slept well. It seems like it would be sort of obvious to know you are not sleeping well, but looking back, it was sort of hard to tell...was it his migraines, his different medications, having kids that seem to constantly up at night for something...wet beds, baby, etc. Nevertheless, he did some research on signs of sleep disorders, and started noticing he had some symptoms of something...nightmares, fatigue, breathing stopping during the night. So last week he had a sleep study and we are anxiously awaiting the results this week. We are hoping if he sleeps better he could have less migraines, but if not, at least he might be able to get some help and not wake up exhausted at the beginning of every day. Sleep is one of those things you don't realize how good it is sometimes until you don't have it. All of our kids are great sleepers so far and I am so thankful no one else in our family struggles with sleep disorders.
Speaking of sleeping, it is my bedtime and I am very thankful to not have any trouble sleeping. Sweet dreams!
