Exactly twenty-eight years ago, to the very day, my First was Born.
I was carrying a lot of weight around.
When I topped the scales at a pound over hubs’ I stopped checking, I only had two more weeks to go!
For the first time in my life I didn’t care about gaining a few extra kilos.
I was taking ballet classes in my maternity leotard;
I worked full time for Corporate America;
I’d made it through a Texas summer great-with-child;
My skin was glowing with the radiance of a pregnant Mum-to-be!
My announcements were ready to tell the good news!
My due date came and went…
Funyun Day was born!
My joints started to creak from my over-due-state!
I kept working…
For one day…
Two …and three!
Then it happened, 28 years ago exactly to the day,
I sprung upon the world a Bounding 8lb Boy!
Welcome to the World, tickets were immediately printed and dispatched with the vital statistics of
Ian Christopher McNeny
The daily cake and ice cream had to stop!
But not today!
Have your cake and eat it!
Birthday Boy!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY INA!!
Well hello there! My name is Vivienne McNeny.
I am an empty nester exploring life as a Boomer…you could say I'm happily Boomering along!
As a homeschooling Mum I have finally quit the job of role model and mentor to my four children. I do what I want to do, eat when I feel like it, enjoy life with my blue eyed cowboy and clean my house once a month or so whether it needs it or not!
In true English form I write about the emergence of my true identity now that I can no longer hide behind my children as their Mum.
