Sunday Best

My son had a school award night thingy and the email that went out beforehand with instructions and expectations said something along the lines of wear your Sunday clothes.
My guess is the people who worded that email either haven’t been to church in a while, or maybe only go on special occasions, or maybe they’ve only seen it in movies. Because my son wore a polo shirt and nice shorts, like he usually does for church. Maybe that wasn’t his Sunday best, but it was his church clothes.
Anyway, he was the only one wearing shorts.
I felt out of place for him, but he didn’t seem to be socially uncomfortable with it, so the award ceremony went well.
I just found it interesting the various gaps between the older generation and the younger, and between the formal church crowd and informal church crowd and the non-church crowd.
Then Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his hand and put it on Joseph’s hand, and clothed him in garments of fine linen, and put the gold necklace around his neck.
