Ive lost most of my teeth and my tounge looks like its shrank over the years when i was younger i would always take pics with my tounge out and now its so short comparing to then is that normal?

Not particularly: I really can't imagine why your tongue would shrink. Maybe since you've grown and your head is bigger your tongue appears smaller. In any event, replace your missing teeth.
