The party's over. It's back-to-school season and, as moms and dads have eloquently explained here on HuffPost, that means stress, wistfulness and possibly even tears (from grown-ups and their kids)... Of course, many parents feel the opposite sorts of emotions, e.g. pure, unbridled joy.

Check out some of the best back-to-school photos we've seen so far, and click to add your own!
