It's hard to even phathom my wife doing this with my daughter and how that would affect them in the future, hoping there is one.
Even when we were in Seoul during the N.Korea Crisis 20010-2014 and thought war could happen...So sad.
To every Ukraine mother out there. Stay strong, you are more stronger than you think. ?? #StandWithUkraine?

Earlier, a heartwarming video went viral showing a Ukrainian couple getting married while fighting for their nation.
The video shows how the newly married couple is in their military uniform and surrounded by fellow soldiers. Their fellow colleagues can be seen singing and applauding the newlyweds on their special day.
According to The Daily Mail, the husband and the wife are named Lesya and Valeriy. The fellow soldiers made sure that the couple had a nice wedding despite the ongoing war and somehow managed to find a veil for the bride and even arranged a bouquet of flowers and a bottle of champagne.
Both the newlyweds were applauded and the bride looks to have swapped her helmet for a white veil as she smiled and held Valeriy's hand. There is also a soldier among the lot that appears to be wearing an Orthodox Christian cross, often seen at weddings in the country where the religion is followed by a majority of people.
The ordinary citizens of Ukraine are fighting for their country - with civilians lining up at army recruitment camps to do their part for the country.
A popular Ukrainian singer Andriy Khlyvnyuk has also signed up to volunteer for the army against Russian forces.

A video posted by the Ukrainian defence ministry showed Khlyvnyuk, the lead singer of the rock group BoomBox, dressed in military gear and armed with a gun on the streets of Kyiv, as he sang a song to rally his fellow countrymen.
Khlyvnyuk has reportedly joined Ukraine's Territorial Defense Forces - the country's military reserve component - in order to defend the capital's streets against Russian attempts to capture the city.
