 * can anyone point me in the right direction to find the number of submenus per
   menu item OR the max depth of submenus? I have looked into the $depth value in
   the class-wp-walker, nav-menu, and nav-menu-template but I am afraid I am having
   a hard time interpreting how to utilize it to my needs. Essentially, I am creating
   CSS based on menus but I am not sure how many submenus there will be (it can 
   be changed) so I wanted to create a loop based on the max depth of the submenu(
   ie:
    -  menu-item
    -  sub-menu-item
 *  -  menu-item
    - sub-menu-item
    -    
    -    sub-menu-item
 * The value here would be 2 (there is a submenu item under a submenu item).
 * Any thoughts would be appreciated.
