Hi, I'm Nikki.
Bio's are hard. I can't wrap my life up in a neat little box and then label it. Besides I hate labels and my life is anything but neat. Aside from that, I have way too much to say. So...I blog.
Raising Marshmallows is somewhere between tough love and indulgent parenting. While the light, spongy, very sweet confection doesn't exist on my blog, the proverbial one does, laced with parental sarcasm. The About Me section pretty much sums up the tone of my blog, so here are four extra tidbits.
I'm a writer by nature and mother by trade, or vice-versa depending on the day.
I will do anything for my family, except enable them.
I believe children can develop a good self-esteem and self image without being praised for everything they do.
and..
If I were to start a cause it would be called Parents Against Participation Trophies.
Thanks so much Nikki for sharing! I am such a huge fan of this gal's blog and I really encourage you to check her out! I know you're gonna love her!
Amanda, thank you for the wonderful feature!

As a non-enabling parent who is now a non-enabling grandparent while still spoiling them with lots of love and one who is so against participation trophies I could just scream; I love your blog too! I am new to this one but I really like it here too!
