How many?

Driving by a lawn covered thickly in leaves, I asked the kids how many leaves they thought there were.
Caden confidently answered 'a dozen'! When I told him that a dozen is only 12, he was quite astonished. He said "that is unbelievable, a dozen sounds like a So Many! Wait until I tell Antonio!"
Caden's buddy Antonio may or may not be quite as astonished. We'll see.
