What's behind the name?

When we knew we were having a little boy, we really felt that we wanted to pick a strong name for him. When we thought about having another baby, we really felt like we could see a boy in our family so well. We felt that with Josh's profession being a firefighter, and being gone for long periods of time, it would be great to have a boy that we could raise to take over and be the protector when daddy is gone (obviously, that will be a while from now!). We also felt that having a boy, he could help fight off all those boys we are going to have wanting to be around with his 2 sisters, one of which, is already boy crazy! We chose Ezekiel Joshua. Sometimes, this name seems too big for a tiny little baby, but he will grow into it! Ezekiel means, God will strengthen and Joshua means God saves/rescues. It just feels so fitting for the vision we have for our son and the kind of man we want him to grow up to be!
