A Gem of A Blog for Moms/Housewives

I was sifting through all the blog submissions when I found a GEM of a blog, blog.WantingWhatYouHave.com. This is just so beautiful that I reserved it for the last day of February. The leap year day at that.

Heather, as her profile says, is “..a happily married, stay-at-home mother of two daughters, ages 5 and 15 months. [She] strives to live deliberately, in a way that brings glory to God, and shows respect for His Creation.”

And, her “..journal is about frugal, simple, more meaningful living.”

I love this blog because it helps mothers save costs, and it inspires future mothers like me to live lives that need not be too extravagant. I love this blog too, because it gives me an idea of how to clean my future house without being too overwhelmed. Who would have thought of taking a managerial approach to cleaning one’s house? Only Heather.

Though personally, I’d rather hire a maid if I had a house as big as hers. :D Hee.

  1. Heather at Wanting What You Have provides a good balance of humor and practical advice. She comes across as genuine and knowledgeable in her subjects of home management and frugality. Heather’s Home Management Guide series is a must-read for those who are starting out housekeeping, or simply wish to make better use of their time and resources.

  3. I love reading Heather’s blog. I can identify with so many of her posts!
    She provides great tips for organizing your home (tips that I most definitely need!), creating (and maintaining) a budget, and daily planning for stay at home moms!

  5. I just want to say that Heather’s blog is really from the heart. She tells it like it is. I think moms everywhere can identify with her, and be able to get a good laugh at the same time. There is everything from useful information to some great humor. If you enjoy reading from a very talented writer, check out this blog to see the next Erma Bombeck.

  6. Heather’s blog is one of my favourites & through it I feel as if we are friends even though we live on opposite sides of the world. I love her commonsense & great ideas on home, parenting & living. I have adopted some of her home organisation ideas & find they work very well. Thanks Heather for all the time & effort you put into your blog!!

  7. I love reading Heather’s blog, and almost always come away from reading it with a renewed spirit. I love the way she communicates the love she has for her Lord, family, children, husband and home. And I admire the fact that she has time to update her blog so often when she’s so busy with her home and family! Brava, Heather!!

  9. I love reading Heather’s blog. She has such heart and spirit. She is also so willing to give of her time. She puts a lot into her blog and responds to all comments. I’ve emailed her a few times about her blog with questions and she’s always been kind enough to respond. She is a lovely, caring person. I love her wit and wisdom and she is most definitely an inspiration!

  11. I have enjoyed reading through Heathers’ blog. I have just stopped working full-time for the first time in over 16 years and have found myself at home with my son. I have enjoyed her sharing of ideas of how she copes. I have loved the daily routine, price book and pantry stock-up. Thank you Heather for your honesty and dedication to sharing your life with us.

  14. Hi, my name is Mohamed Idries and just want to take a second to PROVE to you that Spiderweb Marketing is the ULTIMATE money-making system, here’s why: IT is FREE!! There is NO selling involved….EVER!!! Sure, they recommend that you get a website from GDI for 10 bucks, but that’s because they want us to make the most money possible with this system and GDI pays BIG money for referalls and commissions. I’m new to this system, but my partner has only been in this new system for 2 months and he’s ALREADY making over 2000$ a week, and HERE is the PROOF!!

    Here Is The Link
