Will I ever sleep again?

I need sleep. I love sleep. I am not a morning person. Ask anyone who has ever loved with me...they will confirm this for you. For the last 4 mths, Peyton has become the worst sleeper. I attribute this to her chronic ear infections and I know she is not intentionally interrupting my precious sleep but I don't always feel that way at 5am. And it only magnifies my frustration when Peyton is ready to nap but Addison wakes up after a full 12 hrs of sleep ready to go for the day!

We got the news yesterday that we will FINALLY be getting tubes for Peyton. Although the thought of putting her under is frightening, I am anxious to see if this helps her sleep (and mine too). The procedure is scheduled for March 8th. The Doctor claims she will be back to herself by lunchtime but I am not going to hold my breath. As long as she returns to herself by the next day I will be fine. So the idea of a solid nights sleep lingers in the future...will this really be the answer to my prayers???
