Will a baby get tired?

The baby was only a few months old. It was small and beautiful. One of my former students came to show her baby to me that was born on December 25th. What a day!

When the crying started, I showed of my experience by telling she may be hungry. The baby's mother smiled at me knowingly and revealed an empty milk bottle.

Just then, our servant maid told me that the baby may be tired and that is the reason for crying. How stupid! How can the baby lying simply be tired?

My former student had instantly acknowledged that she rode in her car to cover the 40 KMs to reach my house. Yes! I realized. If we can get tired by traveling, why can't the baby?
