Portrait of Myself By Robert Francis Kennedy

“I am thirteen years old, and about five feet two inches tall, I have got a lot of freckles. I have Hazel eyes, and blond hair which is plenty hard to keep down because I have so many licks, and so much of it. I am not very fat, but fat enough. I weigh about one hundred pounds. I take about five and a half shoe. I have a pretty good character on the whole, but my temper is not too good. I am not jealous of anyone, I have got a very loud voice, and talk a lot, but sometimes my talk is not very interesting. I have quite good tastes for food, but there is a lot of things I don’t like at all for instence [sic] cabbage, fish pie, Brussels sprouts, colif flower [sic], and pears. I love almost everything, cholcet [sic]. I like the cinema very much, and go very often. I go to the theatre once and a while, and like it quite well. I like football, but I like American football much better. I don’t like cricket very much I like baseball a lot. Going swimming is one of my favorite sports. I like skiing one of the best, and I think I am the best at this sport out of all the thing I do. I can’t dive very well, but like it to a cirten [sic] exstant [sic]. I think this is a portrait of my self.”
