Hi Joan,
She's a beautiful little girl.
As for composition, the most useful approach might be to do several very small pencil "thumbnail" sketches. They show you pretty quickly what is and isn't pleasing to your eye.
If you have a photo-editing program, like Photoshop, you can use it to tame that background. I've attached an image as an example.
I like the image Mike altered for the same reasons he stated, however, the thumbnail shows me that you're going to have a potential problem area in the anatomy of the neck. You want to beware that the head doesn't look "cut and pasted" on.
