I wouldn't worry too much about it. The science says they have a cognitive age of a toddler (about 2). They do, however, react to your emotional vibes. So, if you feel sad, they may feel something akin to that. They also adjust their energy level to yours. I know when Dori goes on a play date or stays at the sitter's, she is MUCH more rambunctious than when it's just the two of us home alone.
