Hi! I’m Caitlin!

Author

I hope to make a difference in the lives of children (and their parents) using Macey’s true story of survival and everyday delight. My goal is to inspire kids to practice kindness and acceptance. 

More About Me

Likes

Laughter, being on the lake, netflix, music, hot coffee, fashion, working out, sunrises, soft chocolate chip cookies (or cookie dough), surprises, and tequilla.

Dislikes

Beer, complicated movies, opening gifts early, participating in team sports, general chaos, talking about the weather, and yogurt.

Hobbies & Interests

I like to try new things. I am constantly coming up with ideas and projects which is likely exhausting for my husband. Ever steady are my workouts, interest in nutrition, constant writing, long walks, reading & highly energized (by my rule-keeping and name-calling) card games!

Born & Raised

I was born in Toronto, Ontario as the first of three children. We moved a few times, each time farther East. I was sometimes referred to as the “Preacher’s Kid” in high school (explains the moves). In ____ I discovered the West and found love after moving to Fort McMurray, Alberta. My husband and I married in 2004 and moved to Okotoks, Alberta where we now raise three children and one dog on a little acreage, our “fake farm.”

The kids are affectionatley nicknamed the negotiator (our oldest boy), the accommodator (our middle boy), and the wild child (our youngest and only girl). We often call our dog Maya Bear (although she is the sweetest and not at all bear-like).

Family

The running joke is that I have no memory. It is not my strong suit, but I know I had a lovely childhood (even if it’s foggy). I’m the oldest of three and I was likely very annoying to my younger sister and brother. Fortunately, my bad memory allows me to continue to joke that I was not!

Caitlin has always been a writer. It started with diaries, school essays, copious note-taking (at any given event making her stand out a bit … ‘why is she taking notes?’), and later as a blogger (born out of necessity and established as a form of personal therpay).

The real-life trials can be transofrmative and inspiring. She started writing to use ____ . Caitlin attempts to be in the moment and admittedly is not always successful. But her daughter Macey shows her how when she forgtrs.
