Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is one of the very famous fairytale during our childhood but recently I came to know about Johnston family which is the largest family of achondroplasia dwarfs in the world.
Amber and Trent Johnson, from Barnesville, Georgia, and their five children are the largest family of dwarfs.
From left: biological child Elizabeth, Ana from Siberia, husband Trent and wife Amber, brother Jonah and sister Emma from china, and Alex from South Korea.
Amber and Trent decided to adopt three children from different parts of the world - Ana from Siberia, Alex from South Korea and Emma from China.
They call themselves 'the real life seven dwarfs' and embrace their size, and say they 'strive to raise their children in the world that's not built for them'.
Trent and Amber met at a little people's convention, dated for almost four years and married. Five months later Amber was pregnant.
Trent came from a family of dwarfs, but Amber's family were full size. They knew there was a possibility that their first child could be full size, but at 31 weeks discovered Jonah also had achondroplasia dwarfism.
They were very happy as they wanted kids who were 'like them', they said.
The birth of their second biological child Elizabeth was very traumatic for Amber - at one point she was only 48 inches tall but measured 51 inches around.
They both wanted a big family, but instead of putting Amber at any more risk with another traumatic pregnancy they decided to adopt to extend their brood of dwarfs.
