I like both interpretation by Duncan and Jenene, looking at her head tilt and her arm. It's a brilliant angle and moment caught by you. I expected a fun playtime but I saw a rather lonely one here. She's such a lovely girl, her dress, her hand, her glance, ... Yet I could't help but to feel kind of sad, as if she's waiting in vain or badly missing someone, perhaps her playmate. A strong urge to take the empty seat, keep her company or even ask if I'd play with her...

I like Duncan's take - but she seems more patient to me. 'Come sit with me, Daddy. It's time to put the camera down and play with me!' The tilt of the head is wonderful, Kal.

I like the way you framed this. the way her head is positioned it seems to me that she is looking for someone to sit near her. However the position of the arm gives a sign that she may be angry or having a moment. I mean how kids tend to pull their arms in when they are having a fit. The other arm tells more and the head tilt, like a mixed message, one I am mad, two I do want company.
