`` But remember this in all your planning , Anne . You 're not going to play all the time nor most of it . You 'll have your work to do and it 'll have to be done first . '' Anne 's cup of happiness was full , and Matthew caused it to overflow . He had just got home from a trip to the store at Carmody , and he sheepishly produced a small parcel from his pocket and handed it to Anne , with a deprecatory look at Marilla . `` I heard you say you liked chocolate sweeties , so I got you some , '' he said . `` Humph , '' sniffed Marilla . `` It 'll ruin her teeth and stomach . There , there , child , do n't look so dismal . You can eat those , since Matthew has gone and got them . He 'd better have brought you peppermints . They 're wholesomer . Do n't sicken yourself eating all them at once now . '' `` Oh , no , indeed , I wo n't , '' said Anne eagerly . `` I 'll just eat one tonight , Marilla . And I can give Diana half of them , ca n't I ? The other half will taste twice as sweet to me if I give some to her . It 's delightful to think I have something to give her . '' `` I will say it for the child , '' said Marilla when Anne had gone to her gable , `` she is n't stingy . I 'm glad , for of all faults I detest stinginess in a child .
Dear me , it 's only three weeks XXXXX she came , and it seems as if she 'd been here always .
