The Ascension of the Lord

Today is fortieth day after Easter Sunday so its Feast of Ascension of the Lord. The Ascension is when the body ascended to heaven, marking his physical reunion with God. For Catholics its a Holy Day of Obligation, which means the faithful are obliged to participate in the Mass. (wikipedia) Usually I try and make mass on Holy Days, but was unable to do so.

The kids are off from school today and tomorrow. So they are glad to have a day off.
