<#ann: Celeste has presents for the children. While learning to play chess she started trying to whittle pieces of sticks and kindling wood to make chess pieces. While it will be another year or so before she is good enough to actually make a chess set, she's not hesitating to use her "skill".: Callahan: A wooden ring that looks like a crown Deco: She's saved her schoolwork papers so that he can draw on the backs. Valerie: A handful of feathers she's found. Shawn: a roughly whittled king chesspiece Erin: a roughly whittled dolly Minnie: also gets a doll Jeanne: a wooden frog and a wooden fish Cole: a roughly whittled Knight chesspiece (Cole knows that this is her favorite piece, and wouldn't be concerned that Shawn got the king) Ollie: a whittled cat #>
<#court: Jeanne is delighted with the wood carvings. She also has gifts for the other children, and is excited to give them out. For Celeste she has a bunch of sassafras roots tied together with string (for making tea, since Celeste is interested in nursing). For Callahan and Shawn, she has pieces of flint (broken off from the one she brought to the orphanage). For Deco, a chunk of lime he can use as chalk. For Valerie, an opaque stone from the riverbed. For Erin and Minnie, dried flowers tucked in a pocket of moss. For Cole, dried leaves stuck into the shape of a star (like a badge). For Ollie, a flat rock with a cross of lime sketched on it (and a grin). #>
