Fostering Through A Pandemic: Guest Stephanie Dulin, mother of 6

Hey Housewives!

    In this episode, you are going to hear the beautiful unfolding of how Stephanie & her husband, Jeremy, became a family of 8, one by one building an incredible family with 6 children through fostering and adoption. 

    Stephanie shares how their story is the definition of UNLIKELY as fostering or adoption wasn’t their plan…yet it ended up being their journey. 

    We love how Stephanie talks about the divine plan and God’s orchestration in how each child became their own.  Our conversation touches on the effects on foster kids, families, and the foster care system due to the pandemic.  Stephanie shares how advocacy has changed in so many ways especially with caseworker visits being held virtually instead of in person.

    As mamas, we understand that every day is like spinning plates in the air. And Stephanie hits on a few important topics (or plates) that this pandemic has heightened such as fear, mental health, emotional well being, & stress on marriages, just to name a few.  

    She touches on the statement of  “it’s ok, children are resilient”…but are they?  This phrase isn’t a blanket statement that holds true for every child…something we should all consider.
