Hear ye, hear ye.  His Royal Highness Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge turns three today.  

It seems like only yesterday the world descended upon the Lindo Wing at St. Mary’s Hospital in London to welcome the heir to the British throne.

Now here we are, three years and thousands of presents later.

“Born To Rule”

Why are the rest of them in the photo?

“I will kiss your head, but you must kiss thy hand, spare.”

Hey, at least the Spare gets all of the perks of royal family life but none of the responsibility. Just ask Harry.

“What was that? What the hell was that? Don’t just stand there and smile, Catherine. Do something!”

Can’t you just imagine him calling the Duchess by her birth name?

“It’s…fine. Thank you.”

So polite.

“Obligatory Engagements, Amiright?”

I didn’t even get to fly a plane.

“What fresh hell hath this day brought, Catherine?”

Sometimes, being an Heir is in-heir-ently challenging.

“You’re my King of Hearts, old friend.”

So good to see an old acquaintance.

“Charge!”

Everybody bow down. And move on out the way.

“Everything is the worst. I’m wearing a gown.”

The other kings and queens of the world are going to give him a really hard time over this in a few decades.

“Quiet, you lot. I’ve literally been alive for less than 72 hours.”

Can’t a future monarch get some shut-eye up in here?

“The Spare Is Getting Christened”

OK, this is boring. When do we eat?

“Did I just hear one of you burp?”

It’s a valid question.

“I’m not discussing politics before a 23-hour flight, thank you.”

There is a time and place. This is not it.

“Everything my hand touches…may get crushed.”

Already, this king-in-waiting rules with an iron fist … kind of.

“Alright, let’s get this over with. Pick me up.”

Enough dilly-dallying. Hop to it, already.

“Lovely to meet you, Mr. Wombat. Did you travel far?”

16

Always delightful traveling down under.

“So, what are the rest of you doing up here?”

17

No one has anything better to do?

“Ma’am, may I have a word about the line of succession? Is the order set in stone?”

Once he’s the king, he could change it … although by then we suppose it would be a moot point.

“I Had This Mural Commissioned”

I’m not all that impressed with it.
