Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Our daughter is 17 and has run off; this is not the first incident. She has a 14 month old son who we have raised since he was born. She has been gone now for 5 days. How long does she need to be gone before we could seek some type of temporary custody of our grandson so that we can make decisions on his behalf? Dad is unknown so we are his sole source of support and stability.
