Children need to learn about loss and grieving as much as they need to learn about everything else. I suggest that some of that be addressed now, if it hasn't already. Keep up the search but don't keep this child on pins and needles all the while. Characterize it as you wish--she found a new home, she may have not been so lucky.

"Shit happens." It's one of life's lessons for all of us, not just for adults.
