Can you please revise these sentences? I want them to be good English?

1. He has been following her on Twitter for a long time, he always looks forward to her tweets.
2. Bed time is my favourite time of the day.
3. I found wearing glasses as a child to be very traumatic, so I had lasik surgery done.
4. I found some animal hats in a shop, but my kid didn't like any of them.
5. I can accept you living away from me if that's what you need to do to create a good future for yourself.

Suggestion for you? Try reading your sentences out loud, that is always really helpful for correcting the way a sentence flows, if it sounds awkward when spoken, usually it will look awkward when written. Also, as a rule, less is more.....the biggest problem with your sentences was TOO MANY WORDS that added nothing to the meaning of the sentence.

1. He has followed her for quite a long time and has always looked forward to her tweets because he loves her.
2. Correct
3. When I was younger I wore glasses; wearing glasses was a traumatic experience for me. I do not wear glasses anymore because I got LASIK.
4. I found a few animal hats in a shop but my kid did not like any of them.
5. I am suffering because you are living away from me; you are trying to make a good future in which you are independent and self-reliant.
