Pope Francis holds a baby as he meets children at the Vatican, Saturday, Dec. 14, 2013. Pope Francis has received a candle-topped birthday cake three days early, a surprise from children at the Vatican. The pontiff turns 77 on Dec. 17. A group of children on Saturday presented him with the treat after he visited a Vatican dispensary which provides pediatric care. Francis blew out the candles. Thanking the youngsters for the cake, he promised: "I'll tell you later if it's good or not." The dispensary on the Vatican grounds has been distributing for more than 90 years milk, clothing, diapers, toys and even baby carriages to families in need.
