For many across the country, the school year is just getting underway. We parents will load our kids up with all the necessary supplies except that one specific brand of glue on the list that I swear does not exist and send them on their way.

Q. For six years, I was the sole caregiver of my mom and my aunt. They died eight weeks apart. I miss them so much; they were my best friends, and we did everything together.

I am very active in my local parish.
God as like a friend. Still others, including Jesus of Nazareth, speak of God as a father or a mother.
