The Wishing Jar by Penelope Stokes

An interesting story following three generations of women.  They have lived in the family house forever and there are many stories to tell.  There is the young, struggling with the pressures of growing up who is also dealing with a difficult loss.  The middle age who is trying to find her way with a teenager, loss and an aging mother.  The elderly who feels like she has seen it all and is lost in the shuffle.  The one thing that holds them together is the wishing jar.  Much is learned through trial and error and trust. A wonderful story with a very fitting ending.
