Turtle, do you have a "birth book" or something for him? What has helped me was I put together a photo book of DD's birth. It shows us, her birth parents, us coming home from the hospital, etc. She just turned 3 and doesn't quite "get it" but I think it's more for practice for me to be comfortable talking about adoption.
Another thing you can do is talk after you read an adoption related book about how it is similar/different to the adoption of your child.
My DH was adopted as an infant and says he never remembers being "told" he was adopted...he just always knew. He thinks that is best. So I think it's great if you can start now! Good luck!!
