I was completely dazed for the actual birth so I didn't know that
Spencer was born without making any noise
Ron was worried but the doctor told him it was a myth
that all babies come out crying
The tests showed that she was perfectly healthy
just different
I had no explanation
He was a beautiful kid but so quiet
It was like he hadn't figured out he'd been born yet
I doubled my resolve to get Flora to talk
I knew that no one but me could make it happen
I had no idea where the silents would be
but I knew there were lots of them, I could feel it
I wanted to find the park where they all played and introduce myself
The parents were giving up
Sending their silent kids away where they'd be someone else's problem
She turned to Flora and I saw it
This was it, this was the moment I knew
We hadn't even imagined what they were capable of
