There's something about new, clean, sharp clothing that helps a child hold his head high. These kids' mom knows that feeling good about yourself is important. Knowing that their parents love and cherish them gives children the sense of security that God desires His children to have. He wants to give us His very best for us. He promised us that we don't have to worry about tomorrow.
