 that their words can't come out.  She said we

 should  just  leave  Daniel alone and then  one
 he might talk.'
 Jessica wrinkled her nose the way she does when

 nice to him  so  he'l talk to  me  one  day!'   She
 clapped her hands excitedly.

 talk to Daniel and  trying   to act like  his  mom.
