                CONGRATULATING MIAMI CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL

  (Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, American children are learning the 
value of charity by helping the Afghan children, and adults are 
learning that educating our children and keeping them healthy are ways 
to contribute to the rebuilding of our Nation.
  That is why I congratulate today Miami Children's Hospital, whose 
motto is ``We are here for our children.'' This hospital is always 
seeking innovative ways to better serve the children of south Florida.
  Miami Children's Hospital held a groundbreaking to further expand and 
renovate its medical campus. A radiology expansion, an ambulatory care 
building, a helistop, and a hurricane-proof encapsulation comprise the 
projects.
  Miami Children's Hospital is indeed ``building on a dream,'' the name 
it has labeled its new projects, and it is demonstrating a never ending 
commitment

to kids. Since 1950, Miami Children's Hospital has been the leader in 
pediatric care, and I offer my congratulations for its many 
achievements.
