Chicago, IL. December 23, 2010 -- Stay at home mother of three appeared on CBS morning news promoting her book "Wigilia",  before having any caffeine and shortly after wrangling three children into traditional Polish dress.

 

Her three children were half asleep as the mother laced up their hand sewn costumes. When asked how she got her children ready in under 30 minutes at five am, Karwowska said "I bribed them with a trip to Toys R Us."

The children, as seen in the news clip below, did an extraordinary job and were treated to a trip to the toy store after they changed out of their traditional Polish dress and shortly after the mother had a cup of tea.

This is so beautifully done. From start to finish.

Awesome! My hubby is heading back to Gdansk in two weeks for a month, then he will be traveling there again in May for three weeks. I don't mind missing the Poland in January trip (haha), but I will certainly be itching to accompany him on the May trip. After spending Christmas there last year, I still can't say Wesołych Świąt correctly!

I don't often comment on blogs, but I've been reading yours for almost two years now and this post just demanded a comment! Seeing you and your children enjoying the success of an endeavor born out of something so close to your hearts and culture made me so happy! I just want to extend my true, heartfelt congratulations on your success and all of the future adventures that this book will surely lead to! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

This was so warming and awesome. And just think a couple of months ago you were hyperventelating, asking yourself what have I done, in my car, on the way to movie.
Merry Christmas to you and your lovely family.
