OPINION
REX D. DAVIS, Chief Justice.
The trial court convicted Rocky Lee Hill in a bench trial of indecency with a child. See Tex. Pen.Code Ann. § 21.11(a) (Vernon 1994). The court sentenced him to sixteen years’ imprisonment. Hill claims in four issues that: (1) the evidence is legally and factually insufficient to support his conviction (2 points); (2) the court reporter improperly included the child-victim’s nonverbal responses to questioning in the reporter’s record; and (3) the court erred by failing to examine the victim to ascertain her competence to testify. We will affirm.
