What if SJ was in charge?

There are only a few days left of the school year.  Bob and SJ had cleaned out their desks and brought home workbooks and school papers.  I was going through the papers when I found a report that SJ wrote.  I thought it was pretty funny and so him.  I am going to share it with you.

If I Were In Charge Of The World by SJ

If I were in charge of the world

I'd go to the pool everyday,

Cancel chores,

And wash the bike every Saturday.

If I were in charge of the world

There'd be no school for 1,000 years,

No adult swim,

And no mowing the lawn.

If I were in charge of the world

You wouldn't go to school,

You wouldn't go to speech after school every Friday,

You wouldn't go eat dinner with adults,

Or go get my eyes checked.

I was thrilled that he was putting in writing his likes and dislikes.  He just wants to be a kid who rides his bike and swims.  All this adult stuff is holding him back.  What a shame to be so stifled at 9.  Poor SJ!
