gospel-of-luke incarnation birth-of-jesus signs

                          The angels told the shepherds:

>For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you:you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger. (Luke 2:11-12, ESV)

The question is how would this scene that they found serve to be a sign? Also a sign of what?
