When my younger daughter was an infant, she didn’t sleep.
Not at night. Not at nap time. What she did was cry, especially in the evening,
so I took it upon myself to diagnose her with colic. Thus, I had an explanation
for why she cried and why there was nothing I could do to stop it.



The colic eventually passed, as did her habit of rising
before the sun. She never took to napping, at least
