It's quite a bit underexposed, but fixable in Photoshop...a little better light would have helped. Flash, or a reflector, or move closer to a window. Cute shot though

What Vinnie said, and your white balance is way off. Subjects are way too red/warm. Also my eye keeps going to the brightly striped section next to the adult's head. Overall the image is a touch soft, too. - most likely from camera shake from a low shutter speed.

Otherwise, a very sweet moment captured.

I love that little smile! I agree with the comments so far. Though you can't fix it in this shot, I would like to add that your focus may be just a little off. The little girls face looks just a little soft while the spoon looks very focused to me. I've been having problems with this recently too. Great shot though!
