Both children are happy and healthy—most of which is a direct result of the nurturing services that you are providing. You have done a good job instilling parental respect in the Rowland offspring. You have consistently kept the children fed, bathed and entertained.

The educational attainments of the oldest Rowland child are remarkable, and I believe directly related to the encouragement you have provided. Steven’s kindergarten teacher has confirmed that your efforts have paid off. Your work with Andrew is also excellent, and he is making great strides in character recognition and in art.

You have made many new recipes this year. Understanding that certain budget decisions have impacted the grocery cash flow during the 3^rd and 4^th quarters of 2002, you have done an excellent job of maintaining the quality and variety of repast that we have come to love.

The budget that was introduced at the beginning of the 3^rd quarter of 2002 has been followed, for the most part. When the budgeted amounts have been exceeded, they have been for sound reasons, and your forbearance is much appreciated. This attention to financial detail directly affects our family’s ability to provide ‘perks’ and benefits, such as the shiny 2003 Toyota Matrix car that you have been issued.

You have done a satisfactory job of cleaning the Rowland home during the past year. Steady improvement has been noted since 1^st quarter 2002.

This year we published your first novel, Loved and Lost, which received rave reviews from critics throughout the country. You have made progress on your next piece of literature, which appears to be nearing completion.

Your contribution to the community library system has not gone unnoticed. You have excelled in your work there, and have made your family proud.

You have performed many works of service this year for the church. Your orchestration of the variety show in early 2002 met rave reviews from all who attended. Your steady involvement with the special music program has also been above average.

You have done a great job this past year in working as a team with your supervisor. Thank you for your part in keeping the communication flowing and your assistance with conflict resolution.

During 2002, your supervisor has reported that he feels highly fulfilled emotionally. Without getting into details, he has expressed interest in continuing this relationship into 2003.

For the upcoming year, I suspect that your goals will remain mostly the same as 2002. I have put in a request that a clothing bonus be granted to you at the end of 1^st quarter 2003, after our tax refund has been received.
