The Holy Family, Jesus, Mary and Joseph, is a model for every family. Though we don't know much about the hidden years of Jesus' childhood, we can imagine the love that must have abided in their house, with Jesus at the center. During the time period they lived in, and being a family of lesser means, they would have worked harder than most of us today could imagine. Whatever they had to do, we can assume they would have worked together in a spirit of cooperation and consideration for each other.
