Scholars now realise that Mark's Gospel was the first gospel to be written and that the Gospels of Matthew and Luke were based in large part on that gospel. Mark was clearly circulating widely among the Christian communities in the last quarter of the first century, but it seems that many Christians wanted to know more about Jesus, especially about his birth and early childhood. The two authors, traditionally regarded as the apostles Matthew and Luke, wrote nativity stories that met that need. Each knew nothing about the other's gospel, and each wrote his own version of the birth and childhood of Jesus.
The then-anonymous author of Mark did not write an account of Jesus' childhood because he simply did not realise how important this would become.

Mark, who wrote the Gospel of Mark, was a disciple of Peter, who was a disciple of Jesus.
Because Mark's gospel is the word of God which is truth and his gospel states: Mark 1.1. The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;
A Gentile was the first to acknowledge that Jesus is the Son of God
When Jesus left the world and left Peter to lead the church. It says it somewhere in a gospel but I cant remember right now.

in his head?
The word "Gospel" means a proclamation preached by Jesus Christ. The 4 gospel writers are the 4 Apostles of Christ who recorded these preachings for us in the Bible. They are gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John are placed at the beginning of the New Testament and make up about half its total text.
