Mom, the floor is totally awash.

Calvin’s imaginations usually mean more work for Mom.

Looks like Calvin is in hot water in both senses.

I always enjoyed when Watterson would prove how good an artist he really is, via Calvin’s imagination.

Splashing the floor? If you’re downstairs, Mom, the floor will soon be splashing you.

ahh margueritem, you’re such a cutie today. Do you think Calvin looked that cute and innocent at that age? Somehow, I am sure he was into something…. hhhhmmmm, in fact that look on your faace could be reflective of a plotting mode, lol.

Nice graph art, love the translation from Calvins imagination to reality between frame 3 and 4.
Great drawing in 3rd frame.

Calvin’s got some serious air in that last panel.

He would have won the gold if it wasn’t for the Chinese judge.

If you’re going to take a bath you might as well enjoy it. With his feet tucked up like they are you can imagine him about ready to kick out in massive pumping fury.

it seems everyday my 4 year old becomes more like Calvin. I use 1 towel to dry her off, and 3 to dry the floor.

Wild hypering splasher! Overflew a lot of the waving water on floor!

Just like Calvin—has to be thrown in kicking and screaming, then has the time of his life. Not that that will stop him from kicking and screaming next time.
And is it just me, or is his hair dry? ;-)

Calvin reminds me of my son. He is still in his terrible twos and he is 21 years old.

JonD17 and tabbylynn: Thank you. This is a picture that someone sent around in a joke, and his expression was so funny I saved the picture. I think that Calvin probably did look like this as a baby. It’s a look of total disgust at something, probably strained peas.
tabbylynn: The software at GoComics wants you to use pictures that aren’t too large, and that are either jpegs or gifs.

That’s nothing. I know a 70-plus year old man who is extremely talented and even more extremely, to put it kindly, excentric. He has been described as “very talented for a three-year-old.”

I’d be surprised if there wasn’t water dripping of the ceiling when he was done.
