Nicole Scarborough
Welcome to my profile page! I'm Nicci, a Christian mother of two children, wife of one swell guy. We live in the 'burbs and like everyone else we know, we're doing our best to raise our kids and get along in this world. Along the way we've hit lots of bumps and snags but realize that those are the moments in which we grow the most. They also make for plenty of writing fodder! My articles will tend to focus on topics that are near and dear to me, such as raising kids, growing in my Christian faith, and dealing with everyday family challenges. Then, out of blue I'll probably jump into some science and nature topics (like "what's that bug?") or maybe even some other random stuff like diseases or traveling, or (gasp) catching diseases while traveling! Well, maybe not that. My interests vary widely and I look forward to sharing them with you! Thanks for reading.
