Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California

Grandchild as Attorney-in-fact

My grandmother appointed me as an Attorney-in-fact when I was relatively young (early 20s). She has always sent money for Christmas and birthday gifts to her grandchildren. Can she legally still give gifts of money to me, who has Durable Power of Attorney?
