After @SaintJoeSports girls flag football opened its 2026 season with a 46-0 win against @SBRileySports Wednesday, senior Myla Blazejewski and head coach Jared Dees gave their pitches for more athletes in the area to give flag football a try — and for more fans to watch. 🏈🗣️🎥

Congratulations to Coach Jared Dees and Class of 2026 graduates Mary Maher, Kambria Martin, and Mary Stack for taking the field to represent Saint Joe at the inaugural All-Indiana Girls Flag Football All-Star Game at Grand Park!
While the North All-Stars fell just short in a 22-12 battle against the South, our Huskies made an impact on the field. Most notably, Saint Joe's own Mary Stack delivered all 12 points for the North with 2 touchdown passes!

One of my favorite prayers...
Profoundly poignant, in any station or stage of life.
The Litany of Humility
O Jesus! meek and humble of heart, Hear me.
From the desire of being esteemed,
Deliver me, Jesus.
From the desire of being loved...
From the desire of being extolled ...
From the desire of being honored ...
From the desire of being praised ...
From the desire of being preferred to others...
From the desire of being consulted ...
From the desire of being approved ...
From the fear of being humiliated ...
From the fear of being despised...
From the fear of suffering rebukes ...
From the fear of being calumniated ...
From the fear of being forgotten ...
From the fear of being ridiculed ...
From the fear of being wronged ...
From the fear of being suspected ...
That others may be loved more than I,
Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it.
That others may be esteemed more than I ...
That, in the opinion of the world,
others may increase and I may decrease ...
That others may be chosen and I set aside ...
That others may be praised and I unnoticed ...
That others may be preferred to me in everything...
That others may become holier than I, provided that I may become as holy as I should…
--
O sweet Jesus! meek and humble of Heart, make my heart like unto Thine, and give me the grace of final perseverance.
Amen.

Most of the big networks want to stay away from religion, but I wish they showed us more content like this rather than debating whether Brock Purdy is a game manager every day. Seems like a super humble guy.

Parenting is hard.
Whenever I find myself struggling with it I think about the simplest, but best piece of parenting advice I ever heard:
Pro volleyball player Gabby Reece was having trouble with her teenage daughter and was questioning her parenting ability.
Her husband, legendary surfer Laird Hamilton, told her:
“You’re here and you love them. The rest is details.”

The formula for building an audience is pretty straightforward:
1. Learn something
2. Teach it to other people
3. Repeat
For the best results, keep it focused on a specific topic so you can work to attract one audience.

4 ways to respond to an emotional outburst from your kids:
Do this:
- Pause
- Take it seriously
- Ask a question
- Ignore insults
Instead of:
- Yelling back
- Rolling your eyes
- Giving advice
- Storming away
With my four daughters and fail daily.
Stay calm. Keep trying.

Lie: "When I get [X], then I'll be happy"
It's easy to convince yourself that your happiness is contingent upon external milestones.
• Money
• Promotion
• Fancy stuff
These "when, then" traps are dangerous.
These things won't make you happy. Real happiness is from within.

I’ve struggled with yelling at my kids lately.
Here are some things that help:
1. Take a deep breath.
2. Tell them you need a second to calm down.
3. Apologize afterwards but be clear why you were upset.
4. Remember that I’m the adult. I can control emotions when kids can’t.

👀 Sneak a peek at the deepest & sharpest infrared image of the early universe ever taken — all in a day’s work for the Webb telescope. (Literally, capturing it took less than a day!) This is Webb’s first image released as we begin to #UnfoldTheUniverse: nasa.gov/webbfirstimages/
ALT The background of space is black. Thousands of galaxies appear all across the view. Their shapes and colors vary. Some are various shades of orange, others are white. Most stars appear blue, and are sometimes as large as more distant galaxies that appear next to them. A very bright star is just above and left of center. It has eight bright blue, long diffraction spikes. Between 4 o’clock and 6 o’clock in its spikes are several very bright galaxies. A group of three are in the middle, and two are closer to 4 o’clock. These galaxies are part of the galaxy cluster SMACS 0723, and they are warping the appearances of galaxies seen around them. Long orange arcs appear at left and right toward the center.
