My Weird Children: Part One

We can start with my oldest, darling daughter: Alyssa

She was on he way up from playing dress up in the basement when I accosted her with, "Hey, Alyssa! I have a special job for you!!!"
Usually this is meant with groans, but so far she was receptive. "What?" she asked cautiously

"Peeling potatoes!"

How might you expect a "normal" 8 year old to respond to this? Running the other direction? Tears and screams of protest? Nope, not my girl.

"YES!!!" she shouted and immediately went to find the bag of potatoes and the peeler. :)
