happy 1st birthday little one

We don't know that today is our child's birthday, but we've requested a child who is born after October 1, 2008...and we hope that the child will be in the older part of that range, since we've understood the likelihood of being adopted goes down the older you get. We just want to keep Lucy the oldest, and otherwise we're game. Anyway, I was studying up on my Kinyarwanda (local language in Rwanda) and came across how you say "Happy Birthday" and it occurred to me that if they go with the upper end of our age range, we're about to miss our child's first birthday. Sad.

Isabukuru nziza y'amavuko umwana wanjye. (Happy Birthday, my child)
Turajye. (We are coming)
Nda gukunda (I love you)
