SMS Speech to Text

[Scott216]

I have Nexus 5 with Kitkat. For text messages I'm using the default app - Hangouts. I want to send texts using my voice and have the phone convert what I say to text. But I can't figure out how to do this in the hangout app.
I can send a text if I start with OK Google on the home screen, but I want to do it from Hangouts.

Tap the mic on the keyboard when you're ready to speak the text.

There is no mic icon. Here's a screenshot on Flickr:

I tried uploading jpg to this post, but for some reason it failed.
