A diary for our son, by Joe and Andrea DeRouen

In just a little less than a month, we'll be moving to Arkansas. We're both excited and nervous about the move. Fletcher doesn't seem to understand what "moving" means, but we keep talking up the fact that he'll have a nice room with space for all his toys and a big boy bed. He seems happy about that, at least.

Fletcher is now just a bit over two and a half years old, and he changes a little bit each day. He talks so much it's amazing, and I've actually been able to reason with him once or twice. It seems like just yesterday when we brought him home from the hospital.

Moving to Arkansas will also mark a big passage in our lives; Fletcher is changing from a baby into a little boy. It's a fun journey, and one I wouldn't miss for the world.

We took Fletcher to the Dallas Zoo this last Sunday and we all had a good time. Fletcher got to ride a carousel, a real live horse, play with goats, bunnies, and chickens, and see monkeys, lions, tigers, elephants, and giraffes. We took plenty of pictures which will be posted to the site soon!
