Here is some critique...
cute and a decent shot - no 'posing' going on, or so it looks. crop a tad on the left- the dark line where the wall ends is distracting. nice tight framing but if she wants and 8x10 or a wallet things will get cropped/cut and not in a good way.
I assume the color shift is intentional? Can't say I'm a fan of it. She's a skinny girl so a full frontal shot is OK, but will make most folks look heavier than reality. And you've cropped into her wrists on the bottom.
Background sucks. Can't say it any other way - that sidewalk (white stripe) in the BG is terrible. The pose is adorable - I like it. But you have a pattern here of her looking directly square into the camera - try some 3/4 angles, get higher or lower.
Again, the BG sucks. Why is there a road there? Odd cropping. Seems very much like some snapshot - why is the flag cut off on the bottom? She's too far to one side of the image - trying to fit the flag pole end i suppose, but it's not working.
 Again, BG issues. The top of the image shows a road? in the background. Get higher and shoot down more. You're still being a bit too straight on and square to teh subject. She looks posed - but yet uncomfortable somehow.
In all of these her head is exactly the same. Some kids are just that way, I know, but try and mix it up some.
The lighting is flat in every image - perhaps it was an overcast day? Get the flash off the camera and get some shadows/modeling going on!
