Try this way of picturing a human lifespan. The National Football League's Dallas Cowboys' stadium holds 105,000 people.

Whenever I was alone with Joe during the two days I was there, Charlene would send her son into the room with us. The first time I carried him, Charlene made sure to mention how surprised she was that I had motherly instincts. She probably used the pronoun we more in one day than I have in my whole life.
