Dear Mark,<\/p>\n

I am so proud of you. You have had a great Kindergarten year! Sometimes people can’t remember Kindergarten very well. Here are some things that I remember about this special year in your life.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Here's how you look when you're happy in the woods.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You came with us on all of our hikes and you were filled with wonder.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You played on the trampoline a lot.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You are a good friend.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
I like how you always help out when we make things in the kitchen.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Remember how we helped you learn your math facts? You learned them so well!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You had good times outside with the dog.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You painted a lot of sunsets. You are good at that!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You worked hard to learn how to write your letters well.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
I'm proud of you for working so hard!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You were brave and climbed many hills.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You had many adventures.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You learned a scary lesson when you got lost: "Stay with the pack!"<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You saw the Hoover Dam from the bridge that shook with each passing car.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
We didn't think you cared, but months later when we were talking about Geronimo, you said, "I saw his rifle!"<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You did a good job in art class. Here is the day you made a mosaic with tiles.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Here is your mosaic. It's a sunset, of course!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You loved the tram in Sabino Canyon.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
T-ball was an important milestone for you.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You have a nifty red helmet and bat and you played really well!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Some mornings you did school in your pajamas, and that's kind of fun, isn't it?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You worked hard each Saturday to earn some time on the Wii.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You made a goal to read the Boxcar Children and you did it!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
You have been such a smart, dedicated, and happy student. I love you!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
