As you already know, my name is Natacha. I was born in 1981 in Luxembourg/Western Europe. That's a small country surrounded by Belgium, France and Germany.
During college, I met my now husband, Karim. We have 3 children: Ryan (born in 2004), Dylan (born in 2007) and Naïma (born in 2009). All I ever wanted to be was a mom. I am so grateful that God granted this wish. I love and cherish every second of it. As of March 2011, I am staying at home. It started out as being unemployed. It was like a slap in the face. And now? Well, I got into my routine. And I guess I will not go back.
In November 2008, I started looking around. We live in a small place, and I had clutter everywhere. Our place was more or less clean, BUT, full of clutter. I spend years on and off different methods, reading blogs, joining groups, mailers etc. Now that I stay home, I know why nothing worked... TIME and motivation. I just could not leave home at 6am, come back after 7:30pm AND keep everything organized. During the week end I was so exhausted that I just wanted to relax. Now, I am not saying that housework is not hard work, because I KNOW it is. BUT, it is so much easier to know my schedule and keep up with it. I have the time to clean, the time to organize, to cook etc. I stick to my routine and I am proud of myself. The last weeks at home, doing what I love and always wanted to do makes me happier than any other job in this world!
