Jeremy and Lizzy continue to do community service for Mr. Oswald by making deliveries around New York. They then decide to take a trip to Atlantic City. On the boardwalk, Lizzy gets a temporary tattoo of a Chinese symbol meaning LIFE. Afterwards they walk in on a beach church service where the minister discusses living life to the fullest. When they return, Lizzy has her first milestone in becoming a woman.
They celebrate Jeremy's thirteenth birthday a few days later. Lizzy, Jeremy and his grandmother spend the day together going to the fair and visiting the place where his dad use to take him fishing. They go out to the Big Rock and slide the keys in the keyholes and the box opens. Inside it is a note from his dad explaining the contents in the box. There was a pile of rocks for each important event in his dad's life and he wants Jeremy to do the same. They also found out that Jeremy's mom had given Mr.Oswald the keys and box.
Quote: "How about this one?" she says, pointing to a set of Chinese symbols. Underneath it is the English translation. I lean closer to read it. LIFE p.207
This is the part where Lizzy gets her temporary tattoo with the Chinese symbol meaning LIFE.
