Have you ever lost perspective of the things that are important?

First of all let me say: I get really stressed out. I often am only looking at the difficulty of the moment I'm in instead of the big picture. That being said, it involves my children. It's not unusual for me to say on a daily basis "wow, this day was hard. Kendyl is a terrorist, blah blah blah." This morning was different. Somehow through an odd sequence of thoughts, I came to think about the moment of their deliveries. I remembered the emotions, the events, the feelings, the pride. I remembered how perfect they were and how much I loved them. It made me realize that I have once again let myself get caught up in the rigors of daily life and forgotten the signifigance and importance of thinking about the good times. Those thoughts of my children's birth gave me a renewed perspective on life. That it's not so hard. It's perfect. It's magical. It's wonderful. My children are the most perfect little girls in the world. My life is amazing. It's nice to get a perspective on life. It reminds me that even though some days are rough, and my kid is a terrorist, they are perfect. They are gifts from God. He trusted me to raise these babies and take care of them and make them into something that is an inspiration to the world. They are my inspiration. I am grateful for every single day I get to spend with these little girls. Have you ever lost perspective on what is important? Have you forgotten the reason you have little kids?
