How many of us actuall remember living in a home with three blood generations?

How about four?

When all my uncles were coming home from WWII, we went through a spell of about 5/6 years where my great-grandfather, grandfather, parents, sister, three uncles (two unmarried, one married with a little girl) and an unmarried aunt all lived in the old family homestead.

They were the best years of my childhood.

Big families are such a blessing. It's too bad that more people don't realize it.
