“Pope Benedict XVI and Mexican President Felipe Calderon spoke about serious issues facing Mexico and the international community, but the presidents children seemed to steal the show at the familys papal audience.

Maria, the 10-year-old daughter of the president and his wife, Margarita Zavala, gave the pope a teddy bear, which the pontiff blessed. Her 7-year-old brother, Luis Felipe, gave him a shirt from Mexicos national soccer team. And Juan Pablo, 4, had a soccer ball, which he showed to the pope; the ball did not appear to be on the gift table after the children left the room.”
