Need help with wording

I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas for me about the wording of my son's story. He is a pre-adoptive placement from foster care that we are in the process of adopting. Before he came to us, he was in another pre-adoptive home for two months. This family intended to adopt him, even changing his name and everything. But after two months, they changed their minds. The reason was mixed but mostly they didn't bond with him and really couldn't understand or handle his personality. I don't want to ignore this part of his journey in his lifebook, but how do I word it in a way that doesn't make him feel even more rejected? Any ideas? By the way, he is a toddler and I am aiming the language at a preschool level. Any help would be great. Thanks.
