They are more modernized than the families you're visiting, in that they drive cars and use electricity, etc. They are hard-working, frugal people. Some allow their children to attend public schools, while others don't. Some wear traditional Mennonite clothing, while others were jeans and t-shirts. It's quite a mixture of cultures.Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18124894626273484839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8881189520578385241.post-85022841168492765152011-07-14T23:26:59.811-04:002011-07-14T23:26:59.811-04:00Loved seeing this post.
