I suspect that you might be describing your own home life as the father of daughters! Anne is definitely filled with energy.

I love how Anne grows in Matthew's heart despite her talkative nature and her outgoing, fiery personality compared to his reserve. Even though she is not a boy to help with the farmwork, he can't return her to the orphanage, and then he is the one to indulge her fancies like fashionable dresses. Fathers and daughters - a special bond.

This book just makes one smile.
