Today I got assigned to take care of the little ones, after a couple hours of doing that, I headed to the kitchen to help the elder women cook food for dinner after the men got home from doing laborious work. The crops such as Corn, Beans, Squash, tomatoes, and peppers were grown on chinampas, chinampas are floating gardens. One of the traditions we have are quinceañeras, when a girl turns 15 she is now considered ready for marriage,
I was around that age which meant it was my turn, we get separated from the boys at a certain age to get a different education that will help us in our role of our family members and community.They would always throw a ceremony for this type of event, "when turning 15 a girl should already be able to take care of her future husband and especially a child" said my mom. I think it might be time to travel back into the future,
