How do I sign a Living Trust when using a POA?

I have Power of Attorney for my mother; her residence is in Alabama. That POA explicitly states that I can create an inter vivos trust for her. I have downloaded and filled out a Revocable Living Trust form from eForms. When I sign anything for her today, I sign it " agent for principal" or I sign it ", by Agent". Is that way of signing the way to sign the Living Trust for her? She cannot sign it as she is not of sound mind to do so.
