You are the air I breathe
The earth I walk on
My hopes and dreams - my aspirations.
My love forever.
My utopia - God's hope.
My answered prayers.
A friend until the end.
So caring and understanding.
Thank you for sending me an angel.
Written by husband Craig Greenhagen in 1989.
Made even more meaningful in 2009.
