A young boy wandered onto the stage
at the Vatican this past weekend, hugging Pope Francis as he tried to give a
speech. The boy, who looks about 6, was originally sitting on the steps near
the Pope, while Francis listened to followers address him at the Vatican's Year
of Faith Celebration. Boys will be boys, and this one wanted a closer look at
the man in the robe. So, he wandered up to give a personal hello. But the boy's
misadventure didn't end there. He kissed the cross around the Pope's neck.
And refused to be ushered back to
his seat and, as other people came on stage to greet the Pope, the boy did his
best to keep them from honing in on his new buddy, the Pope. Eventually Francis
convinced the child to take a seat. But he didn't go back to his spot on the
steps. Instead, the rambunctious youngster sat on the Pope's chair while he
continued his speech.
