Guess who was good enough to greet me when I got home for a few hours today between stops on my #ToughLove book tour? This is Camas. She is the best. Born on the day my beloved Dad, Emmett Rice, passed away, she is named for his adopted home town of Camas, Washington. I will be in nearby Portland, Oregon tomorrow at the book festival for the next stop on the tour.

Throwing it back to a photo from 2004 on Maris’ 2nd birthday. Here we are with my parents who taught me that #ToughLove means to love fiercely but not uncritically. What they had in common was a commitment to education as a key to the American Dream, devotion to service, and a compulsion to rise. They did not live easy lives, but they accomplished a great deal. Throughout my life, I surrounded myself with people who gave me tough love when I needed it most. It’s what gets me back on my feet time after time to fight for the things I value most: family, education, equality, opportunity, and this great nation. When have you received #ToughLove that has helped you get back up and keep going? #ThrowbackThursday

Never a dull moment with @mastro175! Thanks for talking #ToughLove with me tonight, and thank you @EmanuEl_NYC @streickercenter for hosting a wonderful event.
On this #VeteransDay as everyday, I am so grateful for the service and sacrifice of those who wore America’s uniform and the families that support them. Among those was my beloved Dad, Emmett Rice, who served in World War II with the Tuskegee Airman and taught me #ToughLove.
