As an adoptive mom of two children (who BTW we are told all the time look like one of us), I can't imagine NOT telling them. I believe that in their hearts they would know anyway, and why would I deny them their story? We are hoping to have an open adoption, so they will always know answers to questions that as aparents we just can't provide.
I don't mean to sound harsh, but I think especially in this day and age you HAVE to be open with your kids. How will your children be able to come home and talk to you about things such as drugs and sex if the most basic information about how they joined your family is based on a lie?
