Thumbs Down What are my rights in Texas

My ex-wife, our children and I moved to Texas in late July. She had many drug/gambling problems in Michigan and I niavely agreed to help her get a "fresh start".
We established a home in Texas and enrolled our kids in school.
Last Thursday her former supplier/boyfriend showed up and she left with him and is living in a motel a few miles away. The children are with me.
A nearly as I can deduce from (listening to my toddlers) is that they intend to take them back to Michigan.
What are my rights? Would this be kidnapping? Is there anything proactive I can do to prevent loosing my kids?
Thank for any advise.
