As I recall, the year was 1973 and Anne and I had dropped-off our sons, 6 year old Kyle and 3 year old Kevin with my mother to briefly babysit them.
After they played in her yard, she decided they needed a bath, and ran a nice hot bath for them. But when Kyle saw her standing by the bath, he refused to take off his clothes, telling her "you are not going to see my touche."
As the conversation continued, Kevin zipped by naked as a jaybird and with a grin, he said, "I don't care if you see my touche," and jumped into the tub.
This was one of my mother's favorite stories, which she enjoyed to the final days of her life prior to passing away just before her 86th birthday in 2004. It was a story that always made her laugh, a laugher I can still hear today.
