Tuesday Feast of Sts. Joachim and Ann

 

Grandparents.

Why do we call then Grand?
Because they are!

If something is “Grand”
It is large, important, stately or majestic.

Grandparents are larger than life!

St. Ann and Joachim were the Grandparents of Jesus.
Did Joachim bounce Jesus on his knee.
Did Ann bake treats for Jesus.
Simple Memories that Jesus probably never forgot.

It is the little things that we do for others,
That make us “grand” in their sight.

Never pass up therefore the chance to do something little.
Because it really is the little things that matter.
And are remembered the most.
