I keep going back and forth to look at these. I would paste them side by side on the computer to check your measurements. I think in yours her eyes are too large. They are sitting there on the face, but not going in as the sockets should. Perhaps darkening the values around the eyes would help.

It's too bad the mother liked the eyebrows played down, that's a big part of how she looks.
