It is so lovely to read about the response of Joseph and Mary to the Words that were spoken about their baby Jesus. They marveled and were amazed! All along, since God chose them to be the "earthly parents" of the baby, child and growing adult Jesus, they must have been amazed at their calling and experience. This was a unique situation, there was no 'model' for them! They were simply faithful to their task as parents during His growing years.
