    Talking Celebrate with our family and especially Michael

    For the very first time in 13 years, our Michael (Down syndrome) slept all through the night!!! Quite an accomplishment.

    Michael is known for going straight to sleep and then around 12 - 1 waking up and laughing, banging walls, kicking the bed, trying to open the window and anything else he can get into!!!!!

    But last night - he slept from 10:30 until 9 a.m. this morning. Not a peep out of him.

    So celebrate with us!!

    Yay for Micheal and oh boy for CJ! I can completely relate to how hard this had to have been on/for you. None of my children slept until they were about 3. That sleep deprivation is hard on a mommy. I hope you have many, many more just like this on Cj.

    WooHoo Michael, WTG! I know you both must feel a sence of relief. I have a friend back home who's son passed when he was 7 about (2 yrs ago) That baby maybe slept a total of about 1 week the entire time he was with his family. I wish you & Michael many more sleep filled nights.
