The pictures with the piglets remind me of that episode of 'All Creatures Great and Small' where Siegfried was talking to a farmer that loved pigs (and I mean he LOVED pigs [always said that he could tell a 'pig' person apart from a 'no pig' person]). I love the name suggestions too  .

I'd love to have them visit my school, because I think the kids would have a ball. William and Catherine are just naturals with them, regardless of ages and/or ability levels.

That picture with the little girl just put the biggest smile on my face. This is the perfect charity for Sophie, you can tell she loves it.

Same here, Agreed- Great choice for Sophie. She loves kids, and was a NICU mom herself, so she can relate to the parents.
