possibly:

h2 > p {
  top: .5em;
}

the answer for the challenge was this... the above would follow the same layout if I understood your question.

.main-nav > li {
  display: inline-block;
  margin-left:20px;
}

You were almost there. You just didn't use the css margin property. Instead you used the top property. This should solve the issue you have here. Cheers! 

h2 > p {
  margin-top: .5em
}
