You thought Dr. Evil is the only one with a mini-me, but Pope Francis has one too!

Pope Francis met his mini-me, 19-month old Daniele De Sanctis, during the General Audience in the Vatican City Wednesday. The little pope ended up in tears while meeting the Pope!

Daniele De Sanctis, accompanied by his mother Paola Ciabattini was dressed in a white cassock and cape, white skullcap and even a miniature pectoral cross designed by his grandmother for his audience with Pope Francis, to celebrate the Italian Carnival.

"It was a gesture of love toward the Holy Father," Ciabattini told The Associated Press. "We certainly didn't intend to make fun of him or the church in any way."

But the 19-month-old didn't seem overly impressed with all the attention, wailing as he was hoisted up to receive a papal kiss as Pope Francis passed by.

Pope Francis has quickly become one of the most admired Catholic Church leaders in both the religious and secular community, which became clear during his General Audience.

Earlier this week, Pope Francis announced the first major overhaul of the Vatican's outdated and inefficient bureaucracy in 25 years.

He created an economics secretariat to control all economic, administrative, personnel and procurement functions of the Holy See.

Australian Cardinal George Pell, one of Francis' core eight cardinal advisers and a sharp critic of current Vatican governance, was named prefect of the new office.

He reports to a new 15-member economy council made up of eight cardinals reflecting various parts of the world and seven lay experts.

Francis was elected pope a year ago on a mandate to reform the Vatican after documents stolen by Pope Benedict XVI's butler revealed the Holy See bureaucracy to be a dysfunctional, Machiavellian world of petty turf battles, corruption and political intrigue.
