1. A reciprocating infant stroller, comprising: an infant stroller having a frame, an axle, a push handle, and a wheel;a drive assembly mounted on said infant stroller, said drive assembly including an electric motor having a rotating shaft for producing rotary motion, a battery for powering said motor, an electrical junction box retaining electrical connections for wiring said battery to said motor, and a drive arm assembly attached to said rotating shaft for converting said rotary motion into an oscillating motion, said drive arm assembly including a drive stud that is selectively in contact with said wheel;a control module mounted to said infant stroller, said control module having a power switch, an adjustable speed control for controlling power input to said motor, and electrical connections supporting passing power from said battery through said power switch and said adjustable speed control to said motor; and,a wiring harness electrically interconnecting said electrical junction box to said control module;wherein said drive arm assembly includes: a crank arm having a crank arm hub with a motor shaft aperture at one end that receives said rotating shaft and a crank arm aperture at the other end;a crank arm assembly attached to said crank arm aperture at one end and to said drive stud at the other;a release mechanism for disconnecting said drive stud from said crank arm assembly, including a drive stud socket for receiving said drive stud and a spring-loaded sleeve configured to capture said drive stud when in said drive stud socket;wherein said wiring harness, said control module electrical connections, and said electrical junction box electrical connections provide controlled electrical power from said battery to said motor;wherein said adjustable speed control causes said motor to provide various rotary motion rates; and,wherein said oscillating motion causes said drive stud to push on said wheel to impart a rocking motion to said infant stroller. 2. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 1, wherein said drive assembly is mounted to said axle. 3. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 1, wherein said drive assembly is mounted to said frame. 4. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 1, wherein said control module is attached to said push handle. 5. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 4, wherein said control module is attached to said push handle by at least one restraining strap that is laced through at least two mounting channels of said control module. 6. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 1, wherein said wiring harness is routed along said frame. 7. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 6, wherein said wiring harness is secured to said frame member by a plurality of wire ties. 8. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 7, wherein said wiring harness is terminated at each end by similar connecting plugs. 9. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 8, wherein each of said similar connecting plugs mates with a control module jack and with a junction box connecting jack. 10. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 8, wherein said drive assembly further includes a base plate, and wherein said motor and said electrical junction box are affixed to said base plate. 11. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 10, wherein said drive assembly further includes a battery compartment affixed to said base plate and retaining said battery. 12. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 11, wherein said battery compartment includes a lid and a latch for securing said lid closed. 13. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 11, further including a fastening aperture and an attachment bolt that passes through said fastening aperture and which is configured to secure said drive assembly to said infant stroller. 14. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 1, wherein said drive stud can be removed from said drive stud socket when said spring-loaded sleeve is slid away from said drive stud. 15. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 1, wherein said crank arm assembly is attached to said crank arm by a pitman ball joint. 16. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 1, wherein said release mechanism is a pitman arm. 17. The reciprocating infant stroller according to claim 16, wherein said pitman arm is adjustable in length.
