A little boys nap

Right now as I write this I can hear the kicking of little Owen's feet upon his crib's "headboard"-the solid wood piece that runs along one side of his crib. Unfortunately, he slept about 20 minutes on the way back from Grandpa and Grandma Burns' right before lunch. That took the edge off for his p.m. nap. I am fortunate though. Most likely he will talk to himself, kick his feet, etc. Happily until falling asleep. He is not upset, just having two year old fun. The question I ask myself now is, what will I do in the situation when he is no longer in a crib? That day is coming rather quickly. When asked if he wants a big boy bed he says no and tells me that this is his bed. I think we may be in for a little battle. But maybe he'll enjoy it more than he realizes. The freedom will probably excite him. Well, for the moment the kicking has stopped. Maybe he is slipping off into that happy 2 year old place.
