Alice is now picking up Corwin’s old habit of taking off only one shoe or sock. I find it a very bizarre habit, which fortunately our favorite child, Charles, did not acquire. Alice is a bit more limited than Corwin because of her preference for tights, which even for her are hard to wear on just one foot. Still, if she does wear socks, she will sometimes keep just one on. A time or two she’s kept both a sock and shoe on one foot, while the other is barefoot. I don’t think Corwin ever ascended to that level of asymmetry.
