How Can a SAHM and Homeschooling Mom Grow Her Business with TPC and CS?

[iamtamnur]

I'm hoping to make many more! I joined TPC in January and CS as soon as I got my consultant number! I am a SAHM/Homeschooling Mom to my four kiddos, Henk (14), Adrianna (13), Piet (8) and Will (5). Just got home from Conference (Wave 1) and looking forward to growing my business!

WELCOME to our crazy branch of the PC tree!

BTW... love the kids' names... how do you pronounce the 1st and 3rd?

 

[Christ Follower]

Alright! Welcome to PC and CS! Just a word of warning that this message board is VERY addicting!

 

[iamtamnur]

Thanks for the welcome! All the kids' names are Dutch as DH is Dutch (as in still has his accent!). Henk is pronounced just like we would pronounce Hank (it's short for Hendrik) and Piet is pronounced just like we would pronounce Pete (it's short for Pieter).

That's what I'm afraid of! The parenting site I'm an admin at is very slow these days so I could use some Internet diversion!

Hi Cathy! I moved from Chester County about 4 years ago and before that I lived in Brookhaven (near Media). Glad to see another Pennsylvanian on here!

Hi, Tammy, and welcome to our little corner of the internet.

Hi Cathy! I moved from Chester County about 4 years ago and before that I lived in Brookhaven (near Media). Glad to see another Pennsylvanian on here!

I have lived in both Chester Co. and Delaware Co. (grew up in Del.Co. in Springfield, right near Media and Brookhaven!), and now we live in Mont. Co. I can't believe you "switched sides" - isn't it completely different out there?? When I tell people I live in Philly, sometimes they tell me they know someone in the Pittsburgh area, and I tell them, "oh, no, other side of the state, COMPLETELY different!!" Hope you're enjoying it out there! Say Hi to all of my Penn State friends out there!!

 

[The_Kitchen_Guy]

You State Penn Friends?!?

 

[cathyskitchen]

You State Penn Friends?!?

Hahaha - never heard that one before

Just look out - Penn Staters are everywhere!!

 

[iamtamnur]

Yeah, I know. My sis and her DH are PSU alums and still live in State College. I went to Bloomsburg and certainly know that lions are everywhere!By the way, the biggest difference with being here in the "west" is that they call soda pop!

I was gonna say...
I can spot Dutch names anywhere and I knew you all MUST be Dutch!
I grew up in a colony of the Netherlands and speak Dutch myself.
Welkom!

Kimberly, hartelijk bedankt! Mijn Nederlands is niet zo goed op het moment omdat ik het nauwelijks gebruik! Ik heb het 20 jaar geleden geleerd toen ik met mijn man trouwde....niet zo slecht voor een Amerikaanse moet ik zeggen! LOL!

 

[GourmetGirl]

Tammy you just made my eyes cross so bad trying to even attempt to read that! Wow!

 

[chefann]

yeah, well... donut! (They're Dutch, you know.)

 

[missydivine]

Welcome Tammy. You are going to love it here.

Mijn hemel! Ik had echt niet verwacht dat je het zo goed zou kunnen spreken!
Hartstikke goed, ja, voor een amerikaanse!
Ik heb ook niet veel gelegenheiden om het te gebruiken maar gelukkig is me zus weer hier in amerika [vanuit zuid africa] dus kunnen we meer regelmatig praaten.
Wat leuk om nederlands met je te spreken!
Kunnen je kinderen het ook?

 

[pcchris]

Okay, I'm typing in English...

Welcome, Tammy!! Happy to have another member in the CS family!

 

[iamtamnur]

Thanks for the welcome, Chris. Most of my posts are in English as well! Kimberly....mijn zwager woont momenteel in Z.A.. Hij woont in Johannesburg. Mijn kinderen kunnen wat Nederlands verstaan als het niet te snell gaat. "Eten" wordt geroepen als we aan tafel willen en natuurlijk verstaan ze wat scheldwoorden! Die zijn de eerste woorden je leert in een vreemde taal! LOL!

 

[pamperedmom24]

Welcome, I also am new to this posting thing, but now I can't stop typing! I too am a SAHM with 4 kids who also homeschools. My children are Haley (9), Kelsi (7), Jackson (3), Logan (2), I have a feeling when I start school up again in Sept. I will be going through CS withdrawls or typing class will be replacing math

It's nice to meet another homeschooling mom that is also part of TPC. Maybe we can exchange some tips on combining the business and teaching!

Ja, echtwaar! lol! Welke scheldwoorden gebruik je...want ik kan niets herinneren nu! Wat vindt ik leuk is dat als ik een engels wordt niet snel genoeg kan herinneren dan zeg ik het nederlands woordt maar. Ik hou ook van woorden zoals "ontdeugend" en "vrijporstig". Ik ken nog geen engels woordt that can replace those two. They just sum it up!
Me kinderen spreken nog geen nederlands maar kunnen wel in negerengels zingen...dat is een surinaamse taal. Ik heb een andere zus die in Rustenburg woont...dichtbij Jo'burg!
