Britney reunites with her mom

Days after losing custody of her two boys, Britney Spears found some solace by reuniting with estranged mom Lynne Spears. "Brit really needed her mom," a source says. "So Lynne flew out and they met." Sources say Lynne and Britney's younger sister Jamie Lynn flew from Kentwood, La, to LA Friday evening. On arrival at LAX, the two were mobbed by photographers. Jamie Lynn, wearing eyeglasses, kept her head low, later covered by the hood of her sweatshirt. Despite the attention, the women made a quiet exit from the terminal, declining to comment or to acknowledge the group. Around 3 a.m., Lynne paid a visit to her daughter's Beverly Hills home before driving the two of them to Spears's new Malibu pad.
