I feel the way I imagine my kids start feeling after failing test after test after test. After a while, a D becomes a good mark.
That's not quite fair - after all, you are competing with a series of other people who are just as desperate and (hopefully, if they're beating you out) just as qualified, while the "D" kids are onyl struggling with thier own limitations. It's not like it's a test you're failing, it's just that other people are doing slightly better on it for some reason or another. Your time will come.
In the meantime, relax and enjoy time with the bilingual baby - and reveal in the cloudy looks of jealousy I certainly plan to be giving you whenever I see you free for the summer ;)
