In it her husband was holding their now 15 year old son on his hip - just like he was holding his younger son in the photo. It gave me a deep belly chuckle! *I immediately knew I wanted to do a similar contest on Steemit!!* Depending on how this one goes, there may be more renditions of it. The first one is "Younger Than Yesteryear" and focuses on *just you* remaking a past photo - no family members or friends (complete details below). #### This photo was taken when I was 2 years old and living in Indiana with my mom and dad. They were out gardening and I wanted to help. Well it turned out that not only did I want to help, but I wanted to eat the potting soil! From what I've heard, I loved to eat the potting soil often when we all were in the garden. *Judging by my recent photo, not much has changed!* ![DQmaDAr38hQJhET75FKE74AmjBK56CwnWCtT8X3CdDxiDxY.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmaDAr38hQJhET75FKE74AmjBK56CwnWCtT8X3CdDxiDxY/DQmaDAr38hQJhET75FKE74AmjBK56CwnWCtT8X3CdDxiDxY.png)

The Objective

Take a photo from your childhood and reproduce it as best as you can. Only remake a photo featuring yourself (there may be more contests in the future depicting those with your family and friends, so we will keep this one specific.)

Guidelines are as follows...

Read Carefully!

* ### Choose 1 photo from your childhood (up to 12 years old) to replicate & include this in your entry post. * ### Take 1 photo for this contest that reproduces the image from your childhood *as closely as possible*! * ### Tell us the story in a paragraph or two of what was happening in this photo - where were you, about how old, context, etc. * ### Resteem this post! The more people who participate the more humor we all enjoy! * ### Make sure you are following us, @mountainjewel * ### Upvote this post. * ### Use tag *yesteryear*. * ### Post Title must start with Younger Than Yesteryear: ... And then whatever you want to put. * ### 1 entry per person. ### Feel free to post your link in comments. ## Contest ends when this post pays out! ![DQmaDAr38hQJhET75FKE74AmjBK56CwnWCtT8X3CdDxiDxY.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmaDAr38hQJhET75FKE74AmjBK56CwnWCtT8X3CdDxiDxY/DQmaDAr38hQJhET75FKE74AmjBK56CwnWCtT8X3CdDxiDxY.png) ### We will decide the winner on three categories * The best execution of the rendition - Attention to detail is the key here. Pay attention to your clothes, objects in the photo, facial expressions, etc. * The Funniest - Judged by original photo and how funny your older self looks reproducing the photo. * Most original story - The context written in the description paragraph(s). ### With these three categories fulfilled with excellency, we will subjectively choose the post we find the most delight in!!

This is a contest designed to get Steemians Laughing at themselves and with each other! We're so excited to see what everyone comes up with!
