I forgot to mention that at Corwin’s last baseball game, while Alice was playing with Charles and Maggie, she was also spending some time eating dirt. Several of the other mothers came up to me in great concern to inform of this fact. I probably didn’t win many points as a good parent when I just shrugged and replied “Oh, she does that. There’s no point in trying to stop her”. I did bow to social pressure a bit and clean the dirt off her face once, but it was replaced within minutes.
