Billysmommy, gosh that is such a tough one, especially since you know and love this little boy.
Have your kids "noticed" anything different?
I think this may be a case of definitely keeping the lines of communication open, but you certainly cannot probably forge the same kind of relationship with those caring for this boy as you may have with your kids' birth mom, etc. Perhaps you could do a heartfelt letter or email to the boy's caretakers, explaining how much he means to your family and that you hope that you can keep in touch regularly, perhaps have visits, etc.? I certainly don't think it is your responsibility to reach out to them, but it sounds like you may regret it if you don't??? Good luck to you (and obviously to everyone involved).
(Alot of these issues are popping up lately! It is really helpful to me to see how others deal with similar or related issues to ones I am having.)
PS: When I said visits, I meant somewhere like halfway between (not at your house, since DH opposes, as mine would!).
