Title: This has taken a while

Hi.  I am getting to the end I hope.  There are a few issues here.  There is a lot of white dots in the original.  Many of which I removed.  However I left some small ones hoping they won't show up on a 4x6 print.  The second is the baby's left foot.  It just doesn't look right.

Very beautiful restore Phil!

What may clear up the fine white spots is a Dust and Scratch adjustment layer;  Radius 1 pixel, Threshold as far to the right to bring back detail but not the spots. (probably around 30 levels)

I looked at the blue channel for baby's left foot and noticed there is a little bit of skin showing between the sock and the leg covering.  Both socks/booties also have a little bit of pink trimming.

(don't pay attention to the colors, it is the blue channel over the original without any adjustements)
