Two year olds are petulant misfits. It's what they do.
You know you *have* to send this photo of yourself to your mother, and say something like, "I guess I groom her about as well as you groomed me," or "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree," or "how can you get the speck out of your daughter's brother's eyes, when you have a log in your own" or something else. Preferably smart-assed.
Seriously, some toddlers always look perfectly groomed. You can roll them in mud, and they come out looking like they're ready for their close-up, Mr. DeMille. Some kids, can be at the last minute of Easter Sunday prepping, in freshly ironed clothing, with freshly brushed (squeaky clean) hair, right before they walk out the door, and they still look more impish than polished. Ben was the former. Julia was (and is, at 7) the latter. Chris bounces back and forth. All forms are cute with a kid as pretty as yours.
Casper looks adorable, and it's clear where she gets it from, and two year old caucasian little girl hair (if it isn't terrifically naturally curly, or unusually thick) is usually whispy. It's how it is, despite cut.

Really, though. Make with the smart-assed retort.
