It’s late April. Zeke & Lily return for a summer they won’t see again for quite a few years to come.

In the past, they addressed the challenges thrown their way with a broader imagination of what life could hold if they didn’t chop it up along the way.  But this summer is different and as life continues to move forward, they suddenly find themselves with limited time and only a few pages left before this chapter of their lives ends and the next one begins.

Lily is now pregnant and their daughter will be born in the fall.  Until then, Lily’s chemo treatments will be halted and her health will be at risk.  But she’s determined to become a mother, even if it kills her.

From a doctor’s visit as well as from her own over-active mind, she decides to make a To-Do list of things she always wanted to do with Zeke before they became parents.

Join Zeke and Lily as they prepare for the future by tying up the loose ends of the past.  And along the way, Lily tries to complete her list … By Summer’s End.

Lily’s To-Do List –

Zeke opened the passenger’s door and Lily got in, no sooner sitting down that being pounced upon by Pretzel.  The little pooch was fast asleep in the back seat and had suddenly startled awake, leaping into the front seat and greeting Lily as if they hadn’t seen one another all day.  In reality, the doctor’s appointment had only been about 15 minutes, but in a dog’s sense of time, 15 minutes was no different than 15 hours.  Lily never minded Pretzel’s overly-joyful reactions.  Remembering back to her dream with Mr. Woody a few months ago, she realized that it was instinct which made her so loving to animals.  With a dog and four kittens, she was surrounding herself with love … so she would never be alone.  With her pregnancy nearing the end of the first trimester, all seemed well, but as the obstetrician made clear, there was a lot going on inside her right now.  It just wouldn’t be visible to anyone but her for a little while yet.

Being Zeke & Lily –

Lily got up onto her knees on the passenger’s seat and leaned on the dashboard, nursing on her pacifier and smiling.  Spring had arrived once again and by mid-April, what this meant was:  the Amish were coming out of the woodwork and making lines of horse-n-buggies to drive around.  For Lily, this was a thrill to see as she made it her personal mission to wave at every single one of them.   But as they turned onto May Post Office Road, Zeke prepared for the slalom ride of the next 8 miles.

“Kettle, Daddy?” Lily mumbled behind her pacifier, waving at the first buggy as they passed it.

“You know, that’s a really good idea, Princess!”  Zeke said with playful excitement.  “We haven’t been there in a while, have we?”

She smiled more widely behind her pacifier, bouncing a bit with an excitement – equaling that in his voice.  Kettle meant a trip to the Kitchen Kettle Village in”Coursy” as Lily called it, or Intercourse, PA as it was known to everyone else.  It was collection of small stores either selling Amish-made goods or selling the Amish idea.  Unlike a lot of folks in Lancaster County, Lily hadn’t lost interest in the Amish quaintness.  And whereas, it was interesting to know that Intercourse, PA was named for the intersection of Routes 340 and 772 – not for the other meaning of the word, that Paradise, PA was named for the beauty of the land, that Blue Ball, PA and Bird-In-Hand, PA were named after taverns in those areas.  Lily enjoyed the history, but also the opportunity to make a joke out of the names:  You have to go through Intercourse to get to Paradise, but if you get lost along the way you’ll have to settle on Blue Ball or Bird-in-Hand.
