Shannon Ogden The Space Between Parenting Two Kids with a 15 Year Age Gap
Article by Shannon Ogden;
I have two children. Both girls. One is 18. One is three. The eagle-eyed among you probably picked up on the 15 years separating them. And yes, that is a lot. That’s from W’s first year in office to the middle of Obama’s second term. That’s from a year before the iPod to the Apple Watch. And that’s from the waning days of my first marriage to the 11th year of my second.
What’s it like having children 15 years apart? Well, it’s an awfully long time between changing diapers. And except for Sesame Street—which has a weird new theme song and is on HBO now—all the kids’ TV shows are different.
There are other differences. I’m more aware of the preciousness of each milestone and how quickly time passes. I was youngish when my first was born. I was oldish when my second arrived. (Wait. I’m going to be an old dad? I never thought about that. I always felt bad for kids who had old dads.)
But these differences are the same ones that maturity and experience bring for any parent with more than one child. The real difference for me comes from being the noncustodial parent of the first and living full-time with the second.
I’ve had to fight to have a relationship with my older daughter. Not any sort of legal battle with my ex, but a battle against distance, time, and money. For 15 years, I’ve flown to see her about every month.
It was a plane ride to her first day of school in kindergarten, first, and second grades until she told me to please stop. It was a plane ride for my annual volunteer days at her schools, which I did through eighth grade until she told me to please stop.
This was a plane ride for Christmas pageants, Quiz Bowl meets, and teacher conferences. It was discipline-by-telephone. was also three phone calls a day to see how she was. It was getting her to me via the most complicated, irritating “service” in air travel: the Unaccompanied Minor program. And I did it all gladly. It’s simply the price of parenting when you aren’t fortunate enough to live with your child.
I feel guilty about how easy it is with Daughter #2. If I want to know how preschool was today, I just ask her when I’m walking her out of class and strapping her into her car seat.
If I want to find out if she’s happy, healthy, and can reach her princess gown by herself, I just walk into her room and see. I am there for every blissful, unremarkable moment of her life.
Shannon Ogden Ryan Laber
Ryan Laber opens up about rebuilding his life 2 years after tragedy hit Highlands Ranch family
Article by Shannon Ogden;
It was about this time two years ago, when news broke that a Highlands Ranch mom killed her two little boys and then herself. A year ago, Denver7 spoke with Ryan Laber, the husband and father left behind. As the second anniversary approaches, Denver7 met up with Ryan again. And a lot has changed.
Laber recently got engaged to be married. He and his fiance don’t want her name used in this story, only allowing us to identify her as a 38-year-old Denver native.
“We met little under a year ago. A blind date at the View House. The first date lasted five hours. We just couldn’t stop talking,” Laber says.
Laber recounted he knew quickly that this could be something special. And in any new relationship there comes the time you unveil your serious history. For most of us, it’s past relationships or a complicated family. For Laber, of course, it’s something else entirely.
“I saw that it could potentially be serious so rather than wait, I decided to get in front of it.”
After dating a few weeks, Laber asked her to dinner and laid out the terrible events of November 29, 2016.
“She had her own principles and beliefs in life that allowed her to approach it in an understanding way and supportive way. She didn’t view it as a news story, she viewed it as me.”
For hours over dinner, Laber told how his wife Jennifer drove their son Ethan, 5, and 3-year-old son Adam to the parking lot of the Lone Tree Sports Authority. There, she drugged them and shot and killed them before shooting and killing herself. Laber would later discover that Jennifer had been enslaved by a torturous, hidden depression and perversely thought she would be a better mother to them in heaven than she was on Earth.
