What a wonderful friend you are!! I believe that it's more than a piece of paper. You would have to go through an adoption proceeding or guardianship in court for the children and then she would sign over her rights to the children to you in that process. If you cannot afford an attorney, you can go to the Superior Court in San Diego and request self-help services.
