Life isn't fair

We found out today that baby Naomi will be staffed next week for her placement. What that means to us is that it is too late to apply to be her permanent home. This isn't the end of the world. God knows what is best for her and for us. But it isn't fair. She just came up for adoption last week and her social worker accepted applications for all of 5 days before she is going to make a decision. She can get away with it since she is in an outside agency. DFS would never allow such a rush. It seems to me that she has her own agenda, and has already decided who she wanted to be Naomi's family. So I'm a little frustrated to say the least. And I'm learning the lesson I always tell the boys about life not being fair. But then agian, no one said it would be.
