Merciful heavens, how on earth did YOU produce such an amazingly gorgeous child?
Sorry - the question is, "Could I possibly have created such an amazing, gorgeous, personable princess?" - right?
Beautiful shot- seriously. You are officially my photographic icon.

Answer: Yes
Question: Did I over process her eyes?

She's a cutie, but the ring lights in her eyes draw your attention to them, rather than playing a supporting role to the overall image. I'm also not sure I like the overall color tone to the shot. However, your model is so adorable that she almost overcomes all those factors. You've done a great job with the tone and color of her skin - especially in her cheeks.
