This is my entry to @mhm-philippines' contest "My 41 years of throwback childhood picture...Now & Then" :-)❤️

Good Tuesday evening my dear sweet and grateful steemians and uloggers. Tonight I want to share with you my entry for @mhm-philippines a.k.a. Daddy William's contest. This is my photo taken 41 years ago.

According to my mother, I was 8 months old in this picture holding a one peso coin. Yes, she bribed me so that I will stand and face the camera. This was also the time that I learned how to walk. She said I walked earlier than normal kids my age back then. I was really wondering if I'm really just eight months old in this photo but I need to give my mother the benefit of the doubt bwahahahha!!! Just kidding of course, I trust my nanay and she knew me so well, because I am her daughter. :-)

This is my latest picture taken just last July 27, 2018 when we went to Urdaneta City, to supervise the ultra mega jobs fair there. I am now a government employee and blessed with 2 wonderful daughters, by God's grace. I give God all the glory and honor and praise. :-)❤️

I am @sashley a.k.a. shirleynpenalosa, a recipient of God's love, mercy and grace. ❤️

Have a blessed and hoping to be a cool month of August 2018 everyone :-)❤️

I am forever grateful to God every day of my life for giving me everything that I need and praise Him all the more for not giving me everything I want. To God be all the honor, praise and glory ❤️ :-)

All photos are mine. The first photo was taken using my nanay's LG phone and sent thru my FB messenger and the latter pic was taken using my Lumia 535 Microsoft phone.
