A WAHM Welcome
Every year brings new ideas and new challenges; however, I must say that this magazine is far from a new idea of mine. In fact, Frugal Wahm Magazine has been in the making now for at least three years. Yet, while the magazine idea has been brewing it was only recently that it came to play as one of many new challenges in my life. A challenge that would have been even greater if it weren't for the amazing team that I have recruited. During the process of creating this magazine we have seen our up and downs, and though the road has been rocky we have emerged with the foundation of a great team.
It is with this team that I have been working and brainstorming as to what we could do to make this magazine both appealing and informative to you, our reader. What better way to reach our reader than to showcase the people who work at home everyday? Case in point is our cover story in which we bring the "Celebration of Moms", an in depth look at the ladies who are out there everyday being super moms. We've also accomplished to do what we WILL do best, which is to be a resource for our readers by providing amazing articles and visually appealing photos, from a consistent list of categories that may apply to your day to day working and personal life.
FW Magazine is poised to be a thrilling ride for all involved and our team is more than ready to provide you with up-to-date & educational information to help you, as a work at home mom, be the absolute best you can be.

Tammy Johnson
