has come a long way from the girl who spent her days and nights taking erratic car rides through Los Angeles.

On May 6, Britney, along with her dad and legal team, is prepared to go before Los Angeles County Superior Court Commissioner Scott Gordon and ask yet again for overnight visits with her adorable kids, Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 19 months.

If she succeeds in this battle, Brit will be allowed one precious evening per week with her children for the first time since her infamous hostage standoff on Jan. 3.
