My 10 month old won’t sleep in past 5am!!!!

Her sleep schedule is up at 5am, nap at 8:40, up from that around 10:30, nap again at 2, up at 3:30 and bed for the night at 7. she sleeps through the night.

we’ve tried: extra black out curtains, louder sound machine, later bedtime, less naps, more naps.

I genuinely feel like I don't deserve Jesus

At least in the way the Catholic church expects me to.

I go through the same cycle over and over and over. I enjoy sin, I know I'm sinning and I do it anyway. Then I seek forgiveness and conveniently turn to Jesus when things in life get hard or scary, seeking His forgiveness and grace when I need Him.

I have doubts and find "facts" that validate my doubts.

I find myself disagreeing with the church on matters related to LGBTQ, contraception, and women priesthood. Don't Jesus's teaching, it boil down to two main principles: loving God completely and loving your neighbor as yourself?

I know that I do love God, and I want to be Catholic and I do want to be a good person. But do I deserve Him given how sinful I am?

3rd grade math tutor

Hello, I'm looking for a qualified math tutor for my 8 year old who will be in 3rd grade next school year. I've check with her school and there aren't any teachers available over the summer. She did mathnasium last summer and it was just okay. I think she would benefit from 1 on 1 instruction with a tutor in-person, but am also open to recommendations for a software. TIA!

How do I get my 8 year old to drink more water?

Has anyone found a good trick to getting their kid to hydrate more? I've used some powders (like Liquid IV) but nothing has really stuck.

How do I help my 8 year old daughter with friend problems (friend group of 3)

My daughter has a best friend who is also best friends with another girl. Together, the three of them, they don't really jive great because my daughter and the other best friend get jealous of one another. My daughter causes more of a ruckus than the other girl. She's just more sensitive and honestly, emotionally immature. Aside from not having playdates with the three of them, is there more I can do to help my daughter navigate these feelings of possessiveness and jealously? Book recommendations?

Wrote this poem this morning in 5 minutes, rate it please

I write poetry in my dreams

And wake up with no recollection

Only the feeling of that big airy space where the words flew from my soul

Maybe my ancestors took them like paint on a brush and stroked a new life

Either far far away

Or right here in my backyard, where the robin builds a nest for its new family

Where I can watch each act of love in its home-making, the emptiness I felt upon waking

fills in with a remembrance

Heaven is a place on earth

What’s the omaha metro weather shaping up to look like tonight?

I’ve heard mixed opinions, anyone have an update? Will Bill be wearing a wife beater or are we okay?

And still in a lot of pain. Mostly her calf and thigh, not the knee. Taking pain meds around the clock. She’s cranky as heck and just so uncomfortable. We all are surprised that recovery is taking so long with no signs of improving. Is this normal?
