To the Popcak family, who received word today that the process of adopting their new baby from China is in its final stages:

Lilianna Fu Zhang Popcak

Significance of Her Name:

Lily—Lilianna will be coming home around Easter.  The lily is a symbol of purity, virtue and the Virgin Mary.  Also, because it bursts forth into a beautiful flower from a lifeless bulb, it has become a symbol of the Resurrection.  Lilanna is our Easter Lily.

God bless the Popcaks and all adoptive families!
