Hi katrineann!

Welcome to forums!

Though your mother holds the life estate rights to the property, if you are the grantee, then you are the owner of the property. She will have the rights to stay in the property until death. After her death, the life estate clause will become null and void. So, I don't think she would be able to take back the property from you.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
