Ditto. Like mother, like son. How do we get this man involved in special education?

No matter what anyone says, Harry is the Master of Animated Facial Expressions. You just can't fake some of the facial expressions that are captured in photos of Harry. This is a man that is totally into where he is and what he is doing and who he meets with open mind and heart and oodles upon oodles of charisma. :flowers:
 
I wish some girl somewhere would hurry up and marry this man so he can have kids of his own! He will be the most incredible father.
 
:previous: He's lucky or more accurately HM and her Government are lucky that Harry is of a nature that when he smiles he breaks the language barrier. :britflag: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Now that has to be the best description of Harry I've heard in a long time and its absolutely right on the money! :flowers:
 
Although this is part of Harry's official trip to Brazil, I can't help but hope that after seeing Harry's quite empathetic and emotional recounting of his visit, that somehow organizations such as Acer will receive more global attention as this is not a problem that is limited to Sao Paulo but is need in far too many places all over the world.. We know how strongly Harry feels about Sentebale and it didn't surprise me one little bit that these children made quite an emotional impact on him and something tells me perhaps a global effort could be in the works for the Royal Foundation. I sure hope so.
 
I thought it quite moving that H still feels the loss of his beloved mother so keenly after 17 years. It obviously is like yesterday to him while taling to the children who had lost their own parent (s).

I do too. Although, with time, the pain and the hurt does turn to sweet memories, sometimes those memories can make the loss seem as if it happened yesterday.

Prince Harry has been to meet villagers located in the rainforest, just outside Sao Paulo. Harry was shown around the village, where he planted a tree and took part in a community art project. The Prince then went to the town of Diadema to see the work of the ACER project which works with underprivileged children-

Prince Harry's Speech:
Prince Harry has attended a reception held at the British Consulate in Sao Paulo, in honour of the Queen's birthday. Although official celebrations took place on June 14, the British Ambassador decided to carry on the festivities during Prince Harry's visit-

Seeing a young member of the royal family working like this on behalf of the "Firm" is just brilliant in every way and is what we should be seeing more often from them. Harry is just a natural with people and can relate to them in his own way.

The lost of his mother is still with him after all these years. It's a big part that's missing from him and his brother's lives.
