If this concerns you, then you need to send her a notice of revocation of power of attorney by certified mail, with a copy to anyone you have reason to believe may rely on it. If your grandmother has possession of the children, you should take action to get the kids back; otherwise, if they live with her long enough (6 months or more), she will have standing to file a Suit Affecting Parent-Child Relationship to be named managing conservator.
You need to consult with an experienced family law attorney in your area to determine an appropriate course of action.
Good luck,
