Something Amazing, I Guess...

There is a scene in "The Incredibles" where Mr. Incredible gets out of his car and a neighbor boy is sitting on his tricycle staring at him. Mr. Incredible asks him "What are you waiting for?" The little boy replies, "I don't know! Something amazing, I guess..."

The first time I saw this scene, I thought, "Yeah kid, aren't we all?" Then, as this is Aaron's current favorite movie and I have watched it over and over again in the last few weeks, I realized something. This could easily tie into Christmas. The world was waiting for something amazing, and it came in the form of a little baby wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger. This is why we celebrate Christmas! No longer are we that little kid, waiting on our tricycle for something amazing to happen. We just need to remember to share it with the world!

Merry Christmas!
