I Pretend I Can Do the Splits

Boy Wonder composed a fill-in-the-blank autobiographical poem during his first week of third grade:

I am TIMMY (your first name)
I am AWSOME, SMART, and ENERGIC (3 adjectives that describe you).
I wonder WHY I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING.
I pretend I CAN DO THE SPLITS.
I wish I HAD 10 DOGS.
I love PIZZA.
I don't like RATATOUILLE.
I want A LEGO.
I feel GOOD.
I try TO WIN.
I worry about NOTHING.
I hope I WON'T DIE.
I dream about NOTHING.
I am TIMMY (first name again).

I love the matter-of-fact tone of his poem.  And I'm impressed he can spell ratatouille.  For inspiring kids' familiarity with an obsure French vegetable stew,  THANK YOU, DISNEY.
