Confirmed: Britney's Boys to Join Her on Tour!

Good news for Britney Spears — the pop superstar is one step closer to proving that she can be a good mom to her two young boys, as both Sean Preston, 3, and two-year-0ld Jayden James will be coming along for the singer's upcoming Circus tour!

Following reports earlier today that Brit-Brit was refusing to hit the road without her boys, the news was confirmed this afternoon in an announcement on Britney's official site, BritneySpears.com.

"Britney is so excited to kick off her tour," reads an excerpt of the statement. "She has been enjoying every moment of rehearsals and is looking forward to performing in front of a live audience again. Both Sean Preston and Jayden James will, in fact, be joining Britney throughout the duration of her tour."

"This is a huge step forward for Britney," one Hollywood insider tells OK!. "A year ago, she was trying to keep from being locked up in the hospital, and now she's not only topping the charts and going on tour, she's going to have her kids there to support her."

Brit's boys have already caught a glimpse of the upcoming tour in December when they sat in the front row while their mom celebrated her birthday — and the release of her latest CD — by performing live on Good Morning America.
