I’m Stacy Jo—artist, mama, nature-soaked noticer. Around here I gather everyday wonder and the messy-beautiful bits of life, one freshly picked post at a time.
A Free-Spirited Chick’s Take on Today
Hop In! There’s room in the van
As kids, my brother and I rode through the mountains in a unicorn-decorated van, tagging along while our parents visited artists from their gallery and practiced mindfulness at Unitarian retreats. I didn’t know it then, but those adventures were quietly shaping how I see the world.
Now, I share little bites of blog bliss about art, nature, mindfulness, sustainability, and family life, all with an open mind. If you like curious thoughts and colorful ideas, you belong here.

I poured my heart into raising my children, never realizing I’d quietly built a vision for their future—one that isn’t mine to shape. Letting go of our grown-up kids doesn’t happen all at once. It happens in moments, in questions, in unexpected quiet.
We let go, not because we want to, but because we believe in the beauty of their becoming.
