Today we wore purple to honor the strength, resilience, and sacrifice of our military children 💜

These incredible kids serve too—through frequent moves, long separations, and constant change—yet they continue to show courage and adaptability beyond their years.

On Purple Up Day, we stand together to recognize and appreciate the important role military children play in supporting their families and our nation. Thank you for your bravery, your flexibility, and your unwavering spirit.
