Gotta make this one quiuck. But that's somehow appropriate.

Jilly-O, the spiritchaser, knows all about quick moments. She has spent so much of her life capturing them, after all. Snatching that moment out of time and holding it forever behind the shutter of her high-speed camera, looking for the right spot to be in so that the light will be right, waiting for that expression to come to full bloom before snapping a moment of immortality and marking history.

She's small and petite and pretty. She's sweet and patient and funny in a way that can only be borne of one who suffers... and if you read her "Tales of the Lieberry" then you know where that patience is honed. Yet despite all of these things, she is patient and kind and gracious and always has time for friends and acquaintances.

So here's to you, Jill. May your day bring you everything that you wish, and no disappointments. And hopefully it will have a few moments worth crystallizing forever through the lens of your talented eye.
