I’m not exactly sure what, cognitively, would be developing to lead Toren to do this, but it was quite funny. Toren has obviously observed Debi and I calling out for each other and calling out for him. We often call out for Toren, especially now that he hides to defecate and he likes playing hide-and-seek. However, Toren does not seem to have made the cognitive leap from realizing some things can respond to calls and others cannot. About a month ago I asked Toren to find his cars so we could run them down the car track I bought him. What did Toren do? “Cars? Cars? Where are you?” Yep, he called out for his cars.
