Thank you so much, Connie Kinyon, for choosing to celebrate your daughter, Jill Kinyon, in such a lovely way!
“My daughter loves and supports the Chimpanzee Sanctuary Northwest, and I want to support her on her birthday!”
Happy Birthday, Jill! Your long-time friendship and support of the chimpanzees means so much and all of us here wish you the happiest of days!
I can’t think of many people I know who unabashedly celebrate every moment of their lives with such joy and commitment as your Chimpanzee Pal, beautiful Jody. May she inspire your new year ahead. May she inspire us all. <3
Jody and good friend, Foxie:

Thanks to Connie for celebrating Jill’s birthday with the sanctuary beings (including blogland folks!). Happy birthday, Jill! Jody has so many wonderful expressions like the one where she’s carrying the big pumpkin. She truly loves her forages, that’s for certain — and I must say the photo of her asleep in the tub is priceless. What a feeling of safety she must have in that pose. It’s impossible to have a favorite but the pic of her sitting alone in the brush looking away is such a vision of freedom and independence that it melts my heart. Thanks, Katelyn, for these great choices. When Jody was leading the group outside I have to wonder where on earth Jamie was since she wasn’t among the gang in the straight line and is often the leader of the pack.
