Ever hopeful.

Somehow I get the feeling River told Simon that I stashed some treats on the loveseat.

The old switcheroo.

Hey, Simon--you should come up here on the couch!  It's way more fun than being on the floor.
3 seconds later:
Simon hops up onto the couch while River runs over to the loveseat and hops down to the floor.

[sigh] Why do I always fall for that?!
