He wisely posted it to Facebook. I unwisely link to it here both shrugging off my singing mostly in pitch while brimming with pride that my daughter&#8217;s got pipes. She studied voice in college and flirted briefly with a career in opera. She sang in East&#8217;s Accapella group.<\/p>\n<p>Long time readers know that I spent the last six years singing to my Mother when Alzheimer&#8217;s got the better of her and ended our conversations. I give my daughter credit for that. She gave me four singing lessons as a Christmas Gift; the teacher lived in the Twin Cities a couple miles from my Mom at the time. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/joshua.waechter\/videos\/10209448590787354\/\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/joshua.waechter\/videos\/10209448590787354\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever willing to inflict myself on my 8 loyal readers (masochists all) I hereby leave you with a cell phone video taken by my&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17999"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=17999"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17999\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18006,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17999\/revisions\/18006"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=17999"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=17999"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lincolndemocrat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=17999"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
