Too many knees?

After two photo shoots, and over 300 photographs, my client chose this image which she feel best portrayed the personality of each of her children. I took a wide variety of poses and although there are others I like better, I want to satisfy her.

This photo is cropped to the dimensions of a 24" x 20" canvas. She requested that I crop it so that a little bit of the red fence shows in the background. To meet that request, I had to include more knees and shins than I like. Are there too many limbs in this composition leading the eye every which way? Any suggestions for minimizing this problem? This is my first post to this section, and I am really excited to hear your feedback. Thanks!
