About Me

I am a full-time graduate student and Zumba enthusiast.  I am also a mother, a wife, and a lover of words–both written and spoken.  Cooking is my nemesis, cleaning my love, and researching feminism and social issues my passion.

I use this space as a journal, of sorts.  I store my thoughts, opinions, and the occasional family anecdote here.  Mostly, I write to sort through the jumble stored in my head.

I have been married for over 4 years and have 2 beautiful children (14 months apart).  I have also had 4 miscarriages (after the 2 kids) and grieve openly.

I am a former Mormon, a current atheist, and a believer in humanity.  I can be funny but lean toward the serious side.

I adore Facebook, am on Twitter (still figuring that one out), and can be reached by either one or by e-mail at hereeverymomentcounts[at]gmail[dot]com.

  1. Just discovered your blog. Love that you are trying to capture precious moments! I have a new baby (6 weeks old tomorrow) and am desperately trying to do the same. Enjoying the chaos – I like that. :) Praying for Manly!

  2. Hi! I stumbled on here through possibly related posts on my blog when I had written about the quote from the movie Signs. I liked your take on it and then read your About Me page and I could so relate to it. Wanted to stop and say Hi!
