Lift by Kelly Corrigan. "This is one of the books I asked for for Mother's Day and read very quickly." From Amazon: "Written as a letter to her children, Kelly Corrigan's Lift is a tender, intimate, and robust portrait of risk and love; a touchstone for anyone who wants to live more fully. In Lift, Corrigan weaves together three true and unforgettable stories of adults willing to experience emotional hazards in exchange for the gratifications of raising children."
