To make this clear the way it is written was done on purpose. It meant to look like it was written by a person who doesn't say things like "aww Thanks, dad you didn't have too." but "I appreciate the gift but I assure you, you weren't required to buy me anything." She analyzes everything and will remember things like a number of pages in a book over what her father actually said to her.

This is something that you shouldn't have to say. If you actually pulled it off, then there is no reason for you to explain one's character.
