But now, with Alfred, we finally feel like our house is the home we always thought it could be.\u201d Although Alfred does not live in the home, he works from noon to 8 every day. \u201cHe\u2019s not a nanny, and he\u2019s not a housecleaner,\u201d remarked Timothy. \u201cSo, we still have those duties that we are handling or hiring out for. He helps prepare lunches, of course dinners, and gets drinks for us and guests at dinner parties. He\u2019s like family to us, but we treat him like a butler. It just gives the house the regal \u201cParkwood feel\u201d we always wanted.\u201d\n<!--more-->\nThe family has no set schedule of how long they plan to keep Alfred. \u201cAs long as we can afford him, and he is making us feel good about ourselves, I guess,\u201d said Timothy. \u201cI am pretty sure he is the reason our home value is up 30%.\u201d Alfred does not live at the home, although the Morrises considered having him live there. \u201cWe definitely thought about it,\u201d said Timothy. \u201cBut, we don\u2019t have a carriage home like some of the nicer Parkwood Homes, and we could hardly have him sleep in the butler\u2019s pantry, mostly because a single bed won\u2019t fit in there. Not sure where he lives, as I never thought to ask him. I mean, he\u2019s just our butler.\u201d Timothy is not sure whether this will start a Stapleton trend or not. \u201cI know a lot of people really like what we are doing. I guess it comes down to whether or not they can afford it and whether or not they have the butler\u2019s pantry to begin with.\u201d]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-5958","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-114","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5958","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5958"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5958\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5958"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5958"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5958"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
