Pope Francis bursts into laughter as he meets baby dressed like him

Pope Francis was wrapping up his six-day visit to the United States with a papal parade in Philadelphia, the last leg of his first official visit to America, when he was surprised by the sight of an adorable baby dressed like him.

Heather Saul wrote in an article posted on Independent on September 28, 2015 that in a bid to catch the Pope’s attention, the baby’s parents dressed her in complete Papal costume as they waited for the papal parade to pass through Ben Franklin Parkway in the city.

A video footage filmed by the baby’s father and later posted on Facebook showed the Pontiff burst into laughter after seeing baby Quinn dressed in a traditional white cassock complete with a small replica of the pope’s ceremonial headdress called mitre.

Pope Francis was seen noticing the charming baby dressed in little Pope outfit by pointing towards her and began laughing. The Holy See urged one of the security men to go get the baby and bring her to him.

The pope leaned to bless Quinn and kissed her on the cheek. He was seen whispering something in the security guard’s ear before the guard passed the baby back to her parents.

The security guard was heard on the video telling Quinn’s parents, Daniel and Dana Madden, what the Pope whispered in his ear.

“He says you have a great sense of humor,” the guard told the amazed parents of baby Quinn.

Dana Madden later wrote on Facebook their amazing experience with the Pope.

“Can’t believe Quinn met the Pope. Truly an amazing experience! We love you Pope Francis! ‘We couldn’t believe that we were able to make him laugh. What an amazing experience.”
