Keep Moving Forward

Disney's Meet The Robinsons was one of the first cartoons we ever introduced to our daughter shortly after she was born, and it became one of her favourites. Funny enough, it was the first time I would be seeing it too.

What caught me initially, was the 'craziness' of the cartoon characters. These guys were not normal people; the Robinsons in the future were definitely not what you'd call a normal family. Then I got emotionally caught up in Lewis' desire to find out why his mother abandoned him. I didn't hit me until after I'd watched it probably a 100 times, that Lewis was also stuck in his past - yearning to find out a truth that was better left buried, why his mother left him at the orphanage.
