Ezekiel; God strengthens

People have dogs, this is common knowledge. "Man's best friend" as they have come to be known. My parents had a dog when I was born and he was a rottweiler named "Luke". Luke was a really cool dog but unfortunately he developed cancer of the face and had to be put to sleep when I was four years old. For one reason or another I have not been able to own a dog since then. I have wanted a dog for such a long time, I have always been jealous of the kids that could own a puppy at such a young age.
Anyway, in sometime in February I was standing outside of my house when I saw him. He was the cutest little puppy I had ever seen. So I started asking my neighbor about the dog, and he told me all about the little guy, and he said "we might have to get rid of him". I immediately knew that I had to have the dog. So I had been telling my Fiancee Laura all about this puppy until one day she finally got to see him. We got to babysit the puppy one day and that was enough for us to fall in love with him. He he was almost three months old when my neighbor Justin gave him to Laura and I. We started thinking of names and we decided on Ezekiel just because it suited him well. It wasn't until later on that we looked up the name to see what it meant and we found out that it means "God Strengthens", and that is exactly what was happening in that time.
