I was keeping a list of all the words that Simon says, up through the beginning of January. I had to stop because he began picking up words so rapidly that the list would get out of control.

Since then, his words have probably doubled, including a bunch more names (Jack, Carol, Maria, kids from school). He also started playing copycat, imitating new words even if he doesn’t know what they mean. I wanted to keep the list just of words where he knew the meanings.
