Dear highly esteemed Dopers,  
I have recently written a very heart-felt statement for my Polish family (wife’s side)this Holiday season as I will not be able to come “home” and see them. I however, do not possess the vocabulary necessary to make the translation accurate. Would anyone with extensive knowlege of Polish and a love of doing big favors for perfect strangers be able to translate this for me so that I might “be there” with my family this Christmas season? :rolleyes:

Anyone?..any-… oh come on- where are you going?.. that’s just rude… sigh…
