Ah, the first day of school. It's so close you can taste it. Freshly sharpened pencils; shiny new backpacks; neat, untouched notebooks; and of course, pictures — lots of pictures — waiting to be snapped. I mean, seriously, who doesn't love a good first day of school photo? There really are few things cuter and more innocent. So, for your sheer viewing pleasure and delight, here are 8 of the most adorable (maybe slightly embarrassing?) first day of school photos.

"I'm not so sure about this whole 'school' thing, Mom."
This little girl needs to stop it. Right now. Her powers of cuteness are simply too much.
"We're ready to take on the school year! Well, for now we are."
Love the pose these cuties are striking.
"Hurry up and take the picture already!"
Not only are these girls dressed to the nines — they coordinate!
"Yeah, we'll pose for a picture. Just don't expect us to get any closer."
Check out the hair on the little guy — adorable!
"Are you getting my backpack?"
I bet this backpack makes going back to school all the more easy.
"Yeah, I'll go, but I'm not happy about it."
I think this little guy could use a Spider-Man backpack.
"You can leave now, Mom."
No words. Okay, fine, two: Super cute!
"If you're taking another picture, I'm striking a pose."
Does this one even need a caption?
