Jean, I'm glad you took the route of using a simpler background this time. The focus can now be on the figures. It will make your life easier too!
I wouldn't add the hand and arm unless you have great reference photos. (Too hard to "invent" or make it fit.)
I would play down the light "X" shape from the strings of the Dad's jacket. It's so central and graphic a shape that it will attract too much attention otherwise.
Be sure to focus on getting a full range of values in the figures so there is more depth, as you work.
Can you post your reference?
Good start.
