Local Ukrainians spend mother's day praying for their parent's safety.
While many Houstonians spent the day with their mothers celebrating, local Ukrainians spent yet another day worried about the safety of their mothers and loved ones. "I'm trying to put myself into their spot and imagine my reaction knowing that my city is under bombs and my mom is somewhere there" said Ekaterina Kuznetsova, owner of U.S. Dance Company in Houston.
Then there are the thousands of Ukrainians who are in the U.S. while their parents are still trapped in a war torn country. Dashutina says her father can’t leave the county because men under the age of 60 have been forced to stay and fight, her mother has refused to leave him behind.
