Meet the remarkable seven-year-old Utah girl born without arms who eats, writes and even washes her hair with her feet



Little Sophi Green loves to dance - despite being born with no arms.

The seven-year-old can carry out an incredible array of activities with her feet  including eating with a knife and fork or chopsticks, writing and even riding a bike.

Adopted from China when she was just two-years-old, Sophi lives with adoptive parents Christianne and Jeremy in Herriman, Utah. 

Sophi, center, was adopted, along with her blind sister Lexi and five other children by American couple Christianne and Jeremy Green

This is the first photo Christianne and Jeremy Green had seen of their daughter in 2010 before they adopted her from China



Despite her obvious disability, Sophi is capable of using chopsticks, and is able to use a pen and write 


 

In the classroom, Sophi has a special chair which raises her up to the level of the table so she can write with her feet 


Despite her disability, Sophi attends a conventional school in Herriman, Utah where she is in the first grade 


The seven-year-old who is dancing to music played by her 15-year-old brother Conor, risks injury when walking if she falls over
