Legal Question in Family Law in California

My sister has left her two children with me ages: 6 years old and 8 month old. She was suppose to return a month ago but decided to stay in Texas and not return and won't sign a temporary guardianship form so that I can make medical and financial decisions for her children. I am willing to care for them as I have been. Both fathers haven't been in the picture and I have no way of contacting them regarding signing any form giving me responsibly. What would be the best way to handle this situation?

The appropriate step would be to file and serve a petition for guardianship of the minor children. This situation deserves the attention of an experienced family law attorney.
