Way up... and back down...

Back on the roller coaster ride:  Yesterday Brooklynn's case worker got a call from some distant relatives who just discovered she was going to be adoptable.  So they want to adopt her.  The laws have changed since I adopted Derrick; foster parents who have cared for a child over a year are no longer considered at the same level as relatives who want to adopt.  In other words, the relatives will likely be preferred over me in this adoption, unless they are considered too far distant.  Feels like a punch in the gut.
