Today the Hush Puppy shoes I ordered online for my hubby arrived. Nestled in a box with tissue paper watermarked with that irresistible bassett hound logo, his new San Remo III tasseled loafers are a hit.
A name for a pair of shoes. What will they think of next? My Larry's Hush Puppies will travel to Synergy Legal and pretend they are having fun pouring over countless legal documents with him from 9 to 5. Shh! little doggies under the desk--be quiet!

Comfort. Quiet. Soft. I suppose the brand name "Hush Puppies" was chosen to conjure up an imagine of "tired dogs" at the end of a long work day and offer hope that this particular shoe will keep your feet happy and uncomplaining all through the day, as comfortable as that relaxed pooch in the photo.
Speaking of hushing the puppies, how does one get a batch of wiggly little puppies to quiet down? Through music of course! If you haven't seen this wildly popular video, do check it out:
The Lord was on to the hush puppies concept long ago and knows the power of a loving song to quiet a fussy child:
He will take great delight in you,
he will quiet you with his love,
he will rejoice over you with singing.”
It's fun how a little old pair of shoes can turn one's thoughts to Higher Things. Hopefully I'll think of that phrase, He will quiet you with his love, every time I see my husband's new Hush Puppies sitting by the front door. And hopefully I'll be intent to hear that quiet loving song often from a distance and realize who is singing for me.

Here's a delicate and beautifully sung version of "Wiegenlied" Op 49 No 4
by Johannes Brahms (1833-1897), more commonly known as
Brahm's Lullaby
Here's CREED singing an updated version of the American folksong
The lovely baby photographs of Anne Geddes are paired with the golden voice of Celine Dion singing a lullaby in this music video. There is just so much beauty in the world,
isn't there?
isn't there?
A post about feet would not be complete without this classic. Here is Arleen Auger singing the timeless aria from Handel's MESSIAH
How Beautiful Are the Feet
