How many Times did Jesus pray?
There us no set-in-stone amount of times Jesus prayed. According to the Bible, He would often pray before performing miracles, while chilling out and fasting in the desert, and in the Garden before his crucification.
But who knows. Maybe he never actually prayed? Maybe he could sleep standing up.

What can you do if you have guardianship of niece after mother died but unfit father wants her back?
You have guardianship. Changing that would require a court order, and unless and until the father starts that process (you'll be notified if he does, and both sides will have an opportunity to present their case in court), there's not really anything you need to do or even can do other than watch out for abduction attempts. If you suspect that one is likely, you could attempt to get a restraining order or, if the father has visitation rights, you could try to get the order modified to either remove them or have them supervised so that he can't just grab her and flee the state.
