Fall in love with life again!

Please please give yourself a great big treat and read this book. Today. I laughed out loud and wiped a few tears from my cheek. Simply put, after reading this book I fell madly in love with life again. The authors became my new best friends. Courage, hope and love are the best feelings in the whole wide world. If you have tucked them away for a while, do yourself a favor and read this book. Playing nice with others in the sandbox, laughing a little harder and hugging a hurt better are just the right things to do. So is reading this book.

a truly blessed relationship

Tears of joy and laughter rained down my cheecks, as if by osmosis, I absorbed the love between this mother and daughter. A wonderful and moving read for all adult children and their parents.

a book that makes you laugh and cry

I read and immediately reread this wonderful book. The trials and the love and the sharing and letting it all "hang out" make it a must read. The authors talk about sadness that most of us don't articulate...it must have helped them to write it..reading it made me laugh aloud and cry and learn to understand and handle the changes that come to us all as we age. It's perfect for all generations.

Just a beautiful book.

Beautifully written by two people who are so wonderfully close and yet beautifully different -- voices that come through loud, clear, and strong. Swells your heart, breaks it, moves you, and makes you laugh. What more do you want from a book?

If Elizabeth Gilbert and Anne Lamott had a baby... and a grandmother...

...she'd be DG Fulford and Phyllis Greene. This book warmed my heart and filled my soul with hope and love. I got Designated Daughter last night and read it straight through so I'm writing this before I start re-reading it again today! To see a mother and daughter grow so close at a time when so many families grow apart renewed my faith in everything from God to Early Bird Specials. This is a funny, illuminating, heart-breakingly beautiful look at aging from both sides of the spectrum. The Big Issues seem so much smaller and the Little Stuff seems so much more important now that I've read Designated Daughter.
