No, they're not perfect. (And I'm not just talking about the royal family. Remember season two of DA?) But, as you said, they give us a glimpse into a bygone era and a continuation of tradition, both of which are often underrated in our culture. I think you must be a kindred spirit!Jill Urbachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16258136131310532197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911314544674287828.post-34893598452967765542013-07-24T17:02:24.243-04:002013-07-24T17:02:24.243-04:00Agreed!!

Those of u...I am Canadian. Thus beith thine answer.<br />Those of us who live in Commonwealth countries, and many who don't, simply ADORE Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge. In almost every photo, you can tell they love each other and genuinely have a blast together. Harry isn't a third wheel, he is the support they both need. William has clearly made a massive effort, and has the expectation, that her family not be brushed aside, as his mother's was. Most people expect that she and the baby will stay with her parents once William's paternity leave is over. Just like any other military family.<br />The best scene? Him putting the car seat in the vehicle. Anybody with a baby knows he practiced that move about 100 times!!

I have come to the conclusion that they are just people--yes, they are royalty but they got there because they were born to it. I stopped getting into watching their lives when Diana died.quietspirithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06086016141181470311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911314544674287828.post-91925774028355308552013-07-24T09:42:53.874-04:002013-07-24T09:42:53.874-04:00I didn't follow it super closely but I did smi...I didn't follow it super closely but I did smile when I saw the headline about the royal birth. It makes me happy when sweet stuff like that steals the headlines from the usual slew of gloom and doom news. <br /><br />And I tend to love all things British too. Studied and interned in London in college and then went back three times after, so it's got a pretty big piece of my heart.

I love the Royals (and I do write period Regency romance with British accents and all) and it was fun to get into the thrill of it all. Just love babies. I love their smell.<br /><br />I just hope and pray the papparazzi leave Kate and the new baby alone. I would hate to have something like what happened to Dianna happen to Kate. But I don't think it will. William loves Kate and we all know Charles never loved Diana, so Kate won't be left alone all the time.Anne Gallagherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05816355522284492131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8911314544674287828.post-36707018402152055832013-07-24T08:26:02.982-04:002013-07-24T08:26:02.982-04:00Didn't really follow just watched whatever hit...Didn't really follow just watched whatever hit the news.
