My question is if i close my case will that say that the children will end up living with her again because she came back with she wants the children.

If she has an open counter petition, if you dismiss your case hers is still open so that will not help you.
Hello: I'll add...even though her Petition is still pending, she still has to prove in Court there is a substantial change in circumstances such that there is a need to modify the prior Court Order and change the children's residency. Unless something really bad has happened, that is really hard to prove. You both can testify and put on witnesses.
You would help your cause by having legal representation in such a case.
