ATHER Victor (Memory Eternal!) shared this quote with us via the Holy Trinity Newsletter. I just found it in my blogger account (from back when I used blogger).

This is eternally precious to us, because we too live ordinary lives, and the fact that the Lord lived such a life, sanctifies everything: from the difficulty, to waking in the morning, to the daily cares and labors of life. From now on, no one has the right to say that life is pointless because one has to cook, clean or wash. Such were the labors of the Mother of God; such was the daily work of her Divine Son. This means that there is nothing insignificant in our daily labors and chores.
