Your post reminds me of a story:

There was this oil baron who was having a mansion built on the land where he grew up. He was explaining to the contractor what had to stay.

"See that well?" asked the baron. "That stays. I used to pull up water for every meal when I was a child".

"Well stays, no problem" said the contractor.

"See that tree?" said the baron. "That stays because that's where I made love for the first time".

"I'll bet it was a beautiful moment" said the contractor.

The baron sighed and rolled his eyes. "It was the best" he said. "Oh, one last thing. Don't touch the tree either. That's where her mother stood when we did it".

"Wait a minute" said the contractor. "Her mother just stood there while you made it with her daughter? Didn't she say anything?"

"Sure she did" said the baron. "She said baaaahhhhhhh"
