We have 5, all are 6 years or younger and we get that question all the time, esspesially if we have any additionals (we take sib groups up to 3 kids as foster placements) with us. We will continue to foster and likely adopt again for many years to come (we are 32 and 26 years) and I can not see our life without children so who knows how many we will have by the time we are in our 40's.
When people make those comments, we tend to just say there is room in our hearts for as many children that need us.
Most people are just unable to imagine living a lifestyle other than thier own. For instance, can you imagine going through life with NO children at all and be satisfied? I have difficulty with that but I know people that are happily living that lifestyle.
