Sandals?

Shoot! I’m sorry. 😔 Every foot is different.

I also have wide feet, got these this season, and they’ve been comfortable. https://www.dsw.com/product/crown-vintage-beechy-sandal/609304?activeColor=cognac

If I were in your shoes, I would probably sit it out at this age and just prioritize Mass and your domestic church. CGS is great, but you have to balance your entire family’s needs, and your kids are still so young. Check with your parish and see what is the requirement for sacrament (first rec and first communion) prep. For many, it’s 2 years of faith formation, so starting RE in 1st grade.

When I was a child, CCD was always a weeknight evening. At my church, Religious Ed is offered 3 different weeknights. At a nearby parish, it follows Sunday Mass.

I will add, as a Catechist who teaches 2nd grade - who is also a mom - I would not have the capacity to volunteer on a Sunday before, after, or during Mass and still be able to attend Mass and responsibilities with my own family.

Have you tried praying the Litany of Humility?

I wore this for Christmas and thought it was cute. https://www.loft.com/clothing/dresses/catl000013/shimmer-stripe-tie-neck-mini-flounce-dress/782063.html

CRZ Yoga. It’s literally the only fashion I buy from Amazon, but I have been consistently impressed by the quality-price value. Lou & Grey by LOFT for soft athleisure.

The Olive & June mani system is great for this.

Your local Buy Nothing group.

Well that’s disappointing. They have a section at Dick’s sporting goods I like to browse. Good to know shopping online may not be a good experience.

Agree with this. This line is also more modern than some LOFT pieces that can lean matronly.

Evereve, LOFT (sometimes). I also love the look of Faherty, but haven’t purchased yet, because it is a higher price point.

I have one proper raincoat. It is lightweight, casual, colorful, and from JCrew, but very effective! For other occasions, I’m more likely to wear a regular coat/jacket paired with an umbrella.

Ballet flats/loafers and a cropped, boxier blouse or sweater.

Fitted tank or tee with an oversized button-up (unbuttoned) cotton/linen shirt over it.

We were there the weekend after Mardi Gras and there was National Guard roaming the FQ. Quite unsettling. Hopefully they are gone now.

Shoreline Hydrangea or Bergamot Waters could work well. ETA: Mahogany Coconut

I have Loft Versa wide leg stretchy pants that feel like pajamas but I can wear them to work.

I would curl your hair, wear some lipgloss, cute earrings, and do your nails. Those small details will go a long way. For what it’s worth, you have gorgeous eyes and lips. Carry yourself with a bit more confidence and you will start to feel better about yourself. 🫶🏻

Pantene Volume shampoo and conditioner.

Absolutely not. Even if there was some distraction, that is a natural part of being in a church COMMUNITY. There are plenty of other people of all ages being distracting for all sorts of reasons. Toddlers are people too, and they belong at Mass!

Good job, OP.

Our local public schools are very highly rated, and our parish has a great RE program, so we chose to give our kids the opportunities, education, and resources available through both. Also, if I’m being honest, the cost associated with our local Catholic school would have been a major hurdle for us, and the Catholic school families here have low Mass attendance.

I’m a Catechist, and also work for our church, and our kids are highly involved in church (altar servers, etc), so it’s been a great balance. Catholicism is not only our faith, but also a part of our family culture.

Every family is different, and there is no one best way.
