CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) – A Ukrainian-American family from Chicago’s Portage Park neighborhood was touched by a small gesture made by a little girl.
There’s a Ukrainian flag flying in front of the home of the Miskewitch family and earlier this week, they found a piece of construction paper by their front door.
A child’s drawing of a Ukrainian flag with a heart.
Annie Miskewitch told CBS 2 Chicago she was overwhelmed.
"And then the little littlest names on the bottom Kaia," she said.
Annie Miskewitch and her husband, Mark, looked at video from their doorbell camera and they saw a little girl running up to the porch and leaving the artwork and returning to a woman walking a dog.
“Not only in its innocence, but its understanding. That this house, this family where this flag is, needs support," Mark Miskewitch said.
Annie Miskewitch chimed in, “Clearly there’s a younger generation all seeing this. I think her action just demonstrates hope all the way around.”
They don’t know the little girl but they put the artwork in their window.
The touched couple said they want to say thank you.
