Calander Help

Hello, I can't seem to fix this part of the program. I am trying to fix it so that when the output comes out, the name of the month, for example "may" or "june" is aligned in the middle, not the left of the program. I am having major trouble with this part of the program.

Also my other problem is that I don't know how to add the friendly user message if a person enters an invalid date. For example, if they enter an invalid date such as (20 20 2016) then it should give me a user friendly error message, but I can't seem to add it without having like 20 errors. Any help is appreciated.

This is the assignment "write a program that will be able to print the calendar for any month requested by the user. For example, in the following example, the user requests the month for the date 5/20/2016. Any help is appreciated again, thanks a bunch. I managed to get most of it.
