Foamy urine since one year

I have been noticing my daughter's urine since she started using the toilet(started when she was 1) now she is 2.5. She always had foam, little amount of foam but those small ones and they don't go away on their own. They have always been there whenever she peed. I have compared mine I have never had any, even when I am completely dehydrated whereas she always had it. Attaching a photo for reference, sometimes two or three foam like this, But not many. Sometimes these attach at the sides and don't pop.

Low Urinary Creatinine Values

My urinary creatinine as per spot UACR reports are as follows :- 18/05/2025 = 71.09 23/06/2025 = 85.76 29/06/2025 = 53.91 11/07/2025 = 111.31 27/07/2025 = 65.30 UACR results were normal at all times Value of urinary creatinine in the above results seems to be much low especially 53.91,65.30 & 71.09 Need to know whether these urinary creatinine values are actually low or not as per standards Can these low urinary creatinine values cause false results ? Will these low values increase or decrease ACR values

24 Hrs Urine Protein Result

My earlier 24 hrs urine protein test results which were done 16-18 months ago were 60 mg/day & 80 mg/day,respectively Now it came 120 mg/day So,can these variations from 60 mg/day or 80 mg/day to 120 mg/day after 16-18 months be considered as a normal day to day variation or fluctuation ? Is 120 mg/day of urinary protein in the borderline or is it in the higher side ? Test results of urine acr,creatinine,urea,potassium & usg are all within normal limits
