King of the Hill, Almost

Emme loves to sit on the back of the couch and survey her kingdom. She looks like the King of the Hill, except when she falls off. This weekend she was watching out the window and not much was happening. She often will just sit and wait for a little kid, a walker, a dog, or someone on a bicycle to go by the window. She just watches patiently until something interesting goes by.

This weekend, something really wonderful must have passed the window and she hopped up excitedly to get a better look. In the process, she lost her balance and fell down in between the couch and the window. I was right beside her and swooped her up in my arms. She seemed dazed and a little confused, but she was not hurt.

I have heard that Bichons are the cats of the dog world. They like high places and they like to get up on things. Emme does like to get up on the back of the couch, but she must not be as sure footed as a cat. So much for King of the Hill.
