Yeah, Robin. LOL! I don't know how well I'd do in a -can't-turn-around-without-tripping-over-someone- environment. But then again, after you get past a certain number, I wonder if it even matters anymore. Like after how many do you stop noticing the difference, just that you are surrounded by people? Not that each isn't unique, but you know what I mean. Interesting thought.
Not the same as kids obviously, but my parents have a lot of animals (mostly cats), and there is a joke that you can be anywhere in the house except a bathroom, and be able to see a minimum of 5 animals. You have to stop and think about how many there actually are (I can't tell you -- since the last dog died, no more dogs, just cats, but I think...6 or 7?).
I've always thought the jump from one child to two is WAY bigger than the jump from two to three, and after you get to four, they just sort of 'school'. I think under different circumstances, I would totally enjoy a whole mass of kids.
