The holidays often hold more than just familiar traditions and cheerful decorations.

For one couple, a movie they’d seen countless times ended up marking the beginning of a whole new chapter of their lives.

Read on for your daily dose of positivity!

I found out I was pregnant by watching Home Alone

One year ago (tomorrow), my husband and I were watching Home Alone in our living room before heading over to my parents’ for Christmas.

But this time, the viewing led to some big emotions.

I’ve seen Home Alone dozens, if not hundreds, of times. At the end, when Kevin and his mom reunite, I started crying uncontrollably.

Luckily, her husband knew just what to do.

My husband looked at me like I was crazy, and I told him he better go to Walgreens to get a pregnancy test.

Tomorrow, we will get to celebrate our 4-month-old daughter’s first Christmas!

This movie will be forever immortalized as a very special one for this couple!
