Messy Face

It's a fact. 

Messy hands are drawn to clean hair. 

It does not matter what she is eating, her hands find their way to her hair. 

Sometimes it is just the hair above her ear. Swiping at her ear with anxious energy as she debates a next bite, melt down or to ask for more. Other times it is the tired, frustrated double hands behind the head that leave everything covered the same as her high chair. 

It does not matter if she is eating something dry or wet, crunchy or soft. I pick goldfish pieces out and dunk her partial head under the sink routinely after meals. We will snuggle later only for her hair to crunch when I touch it. 

She eats well most of the time, but all of the time it ends up in her hair.
