Kimmy! YAY!

Just my own opinion, to give you another perspective, but I'd mention the prior ms. You want to stand out from the other subs, and the previous ms helps you forge a further connection with the editor because you two have "history" together.
Now, I say this because I've seen relationships between writers/agents and writers/editors evolve into representation and offers over time and across ms's.
I know the knee-jerk reaction is that rejections are bad, they say negative things about us, our writing or our work. But the truth is, coming close, rejection or not, is a big deal. We can tend to play it down because it's an R. But the request in the first place means we fit the editor/agents' subjective tastes. And in that situation, being close-almost does matter.
For example, I kept querying the agents that requested partial and fulls that rejected me, (close-almosts) with my next ms, and when I got offers on my ms, some were from these agents.
We take rejection as meaning something negative, but there are times rejection is about more than our writing or ability or talent. Sometimes our ms doesn't fit the current market trends, or perhaps the agent/editor has something similar, or perhaps your MC loves shellfish, and shellfish just made the professional sick for a week.
So, in sum, imho, keep forging relationships with agents and editors who request from you. Something about your writing and talent hit their sweet spot. In my own experience, I never found it to hurt me, to remind them of this.
