00:00:00:015 --> 00:00:02.085
My name is Carmella Dieros. 

2
00:00:02.085 --> 00:00:06.506
I said to my daughter,  
 I think I'm going to move to Connecticut.

3
00:00:06.548 --> 00:00:09.968
My A-Type daughter in Newbury got right on it. 
 
4 
00:00:10.301 --> 00:00:12.765
This was the middle of August. 

5
00:00:12.890 --> 00:00:16.560
I was lucky enough to have Amanda show me around.

6
00:00:17.601 --> 00:00:21.271
She took me to two or three apartments, 

7
00:00:21.271 --> 00:00:25.523
and the one thing that changed me,

8
00:00:25.550 --> 00:00:28.068
she never called it an apartment, 

9
00:00:28.068 --> 00:00:30.446
she never called in a condo,

10
00:00:30.779 --> 00:00:31.948
she never said a room. 

11
00:00:32.323 --> 00:00:35.535
She'd open the door and say, alright, this is going to be your home.

12
00:00:36.578 --> 00:00:40:000
Picture your furniture in here. 

13
00:00:41.135 --> 00:00:44.535
I gave me goosebumps because this is going to be my home.

14
00:00:45.535 --> 00:00:49.535
So, when I walked in the first thing 
  I saw was a big bay window,

15
00:00:50:068 --> 00:00:54:125
I could see right out. My daughter said to me, "Oh look, trees!

16
00:00:54.535 --> 00:00:58:135
You can put your birdhouses up".

17
00:00:59:085 --> 00:01:04:779
I fell in love with it, and it was 
 because Amanda used the word home.
