Britney & Her Boys Smile For Elle

Here’s a sneak peak at the highly anticipated Britney Spears‘ Elle cover and photo shoot with her boys Jayden James and Sean Preston.

Only in the Spears household would you see Britney wearing sunglasses and a black lacy dress while one of her tots makes a mess on the counter.

And for once, Brit Brit looks genuinely happy. It’s been a long time comin’!
