Smart Family Readies Itself for Elizabeth's 15th Birthday
Wednesday, October 30, 2002

Nearly one year ago, when Elizabeth Smart turned 14, she had "one of the best birthday parties ever," said her father, Ed Smart, on Tuesday.

On Sunday, the missing girl's family will celebrate Elizabeth's 15th birthday with a trip to "her favorite place" -- Disneyland, Smart said at a brief news conference at the family LDS church house.

Smart wept as he spoke of his daughter -- kidnapped by an armed intruder June 5 -- as a "wonderful girl."
He said Elizabeth, "hates to see others who are downtrodden," as he pleaded for Congress to pass a national AMBER alert system.

Rep. Jim Matheson, D-Utah, joined the Smart family, calling the system, which would streamline widespread notification of child abductions, a "nonpartisan issue."
