My money is on the fact that as a convert you know more about your faith than most cradle Catholics know or knew at aged 33. I'm trying hard (at age 44) to think of anyone my age who had faith ingrained into them at all.
I'm trying - but have a lot of catching up to do :) The "ingrained" cradle Catholics I'm surrounded by are all traditional. Even the teenagers are well-versed in the Faith. Best group of young people I've ever met.
BTW - the smallest Catholic family I'm aquainted with has 6 kids - the parents are in their late 20's. The largest is 15 kids. My wife is unable to have any more, but we have a 10 year-old daughter. I'm looking forward to many grandchildren in my later years...
