Ever see a child who is absolutely uncontrollable? I personally was not one of those children, but I’ve seen the really crazy ones before. Some of them are even related to me.

In any event, these kids really deserve a better rap. Is it their fault that the vacuum managed to suck up the cat? No. Is it really fair to assume that they knew the ceiling fan wouldn’t hold their bodyweight. No way.

Well, maybe.

So for your challenge today, find the Amazon in your family and give them a special thank-you message for being so out there and making life interesting. Do a little portrait of them or create your own wild child. If you can’t think of anyone, just thank God for Bill Watterson who gave the world the gift of Calvin and Hobbes, which has been inspiring ornery kids everywhere since 1985.
