OPINION

Evelyn V. Keyes, Justice

A jury convicted appellant, Derek Thomas Baldit, of the Class A- misdemeanor offense of assault on a family member. 1 Pursuant to an agreement between appellant and the State, the trial court assessed appellant’s punishment at ISO days’ confinement in the Harris County Jail. In two issues, appellant contends that (1) the State failed to present sufficient evidence that he intentionally or knowingly caused bodily injury to the complainant and (2) the trial court erred in failing to make a competency finding concerning a child witness.

•We affirm.
