Mijn zusje is pas verhuisd, ik heb voor haar dit leuke melkpakje gemaakt. Ik heb het melkpakje versierd als een huisje. Zo te zien voelen ze zich al helemaal thuis, de krant is al bezorgd, en de laarzen staan al bij de deur. Ook aan de vogeltjes is gedacht. Zou dit vogelhuisje dit voorjaar nog verhuurd worden ? ;-) Er is al een vogeltje aan komen vliegen, dus wie weet. De poes van de buren is ook al nieuwsgierig naar de nieuwe bewoners, en heeft zijn plekje op het hek al in genomen. Naast het huis staat een grote boom, de eerste vlinder laat zich al zien, zou het voorjaar er bijna aan komen ? In het huisje heb ik een zakje met snoepsleutels gestopt, wel toepasselijk toch ?
