Illustration Friday "Rambunctious"


Since "rambunctious" usually refers to kids, I thought it would be a good idea to turn the tables. This also reminded me of a childhood experience: One time my parents had some of their friends over and they put my brother and me to bed. After several rounds of drinks, one of their guests started telling dirty jokes. My brother I and cracked open the door and listened. Later, my mom caught me telling embellished versions of the dirty jokes!

Wonderful illustration and a great angle on this theme. I saw my parents on many occasions being embarrassingly rambunctious, too... they were wilder than I ever was.

I love the original take on this. Children are always amazed that adults have fun, too! Great illustration!
