Sorry for the numerous comments, but I just resent the query and got an immediate response, so at least that is now taken care of.
@RCantu94, I'm not sure if you should do the same or not, but I wanted to tell you either way :)

Yes, I sent it to that email and was very specific to triple check that everything is in the right format before sending, but thanks for asking. Now, I just don't know if it went through and how I should proceed because I don't want to annoy an agent by sending an unnecessary email to check if the first came through.
@RCantu94
Thanks for letting me know. I hope we both still got through :)

@Jerry_Savolainen I did get a confirmation email, did you send it to info@jillgrinbergliterary.com ?
Or maybe it's because they're also very specific about how you should enter the subject line? The format is: QUERY: Title of Project by Your Name / Your Book’s Age Category and Genre / ATTN: Name of Agent.

Thank you so much for your query. I genuinely appreciate the opportunity to consider your manuscript, but I’m afraid I’m going to pass, as I don’t feel that I could represent your work with the requisite enthusiasm. Again, thank you for sharing your work with me, and I wish you all the best in finding the perfect agent to champion your career.
Warmly,
Sam
