Introduction, tossing around the idea

Hello ladies,
I am a 28 YO single mother to a perfect 5 YO boy. This single parent life was not a choice to me and I never intended to stop at just 1 child but I became a widow almost exactly 3 years ago. It has been an adjustment for me and I thought at first that the only way I would have another child is by meeting the right man. After 3 years of focusing on my son and myself I have begun to toss around the idea of IUI to finish my family.
It is so hard to even try to date, not to mention that I am so very protective of my son. It could take me a whole decade to locate and trust "Mr. Right" with the task of being father to my son and creating new life. I want my son to have a sibling soon... not when he's graduating high school.
To be honest, my greatest fear is that adding a baby to our family will be financially stressful on me as a single parent, but I know that I have faced and overcome many obstacles in my lifetime and i have the drive to not only pursue but achieve what I set my mind to. I know that if this is my next goal, I WILL achieve it and everything will work out.

I just wanted to wish you well as you figure out it all out.
If you pray, pray about it. If you don't pray, but you believe, pray about it. :) If you don't believe, pray anyway. lol. Also listen to your heart, mind and conscious. The right answer for you will come if you really open yourself up to hearing it. Best wishes!
