have you ever noticed? | Little Things Thursday ...

Odd numbers. 
(Especially the number 3.)



When decorating. 
When composing a picture (rule-of-thirds) 
The number of candies my daughter would hold up her fingers and request when she was a toddler;
or the number of days my son announced to the doctor's waiting room
"it will be out in 3 days!", holding up his tiny fingers for emphasis (referring to the marble he swallowed).
The "acceptable" number of children - 3 - no biggie, but with 4 suddenly you have a "large" family. 
Generally the number of people in a "close" friendship: 3 = buddies; 4 = group; 5 = gang.

They say "three's a crowd" and yet it is so much more aesthetically pleasing.

  1. I asked my son to count these "they've gone away, sorry, too late. May I see the flower ones please?" :)

  7. Yes, there is something about those odd numbers - they must cause tension, which always makes for something more interesting!

  9. Lovely birds on a wire...Yes, I always seem to group things in three's. It just seems to be a pleasing number. But as for swallowing marbles - I think one should be sufficient. Just sayin'. xo Karen

  11. One of the cardinal rules. But sometimes it's nice to break that rule, too, isn't it? {Just so you keep it an odd number!}
