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.
