Their excuse was that she was to bonded to us. duh!!!What do they expect when you give a child your heart and everything you have as if she was your own, only to have her snatched away never once concidering the damage they have done to our family. I have no use for any of them. I am very dissapointed in our legal system. They are supposed to be in this for the best intrest of the child. BULL !!!! I really think someone got their pocket padded through all of this. I heard the family that adopted the child was a Dr. GO figure !!! I would go international if I were going to adopt.I wish I could afford it. May cost you a little but you wont have to put up with the know it all attitude of the legal system here. Be careful and guard your heart. I will go to my grave missing my little girl and there is nothing I can do about it.
