first day of school nerves

First, let me give you a little backgroud. I am still a fairly new teacher- 3 years. But I have worked with kids for many years- daycare, after school programs, volunteering at local schools, etc... So I am used to dealing with kids and feel very confident about that part of teaching.
But our first day of school is Monday and my nerves are shot already. I feel more confident this year than I have in previous years at the beginning of school. I know more about what to expect and how to handle my class from the very beginning. I am just SO nervous about the first day of school. It is really overwhelming me right now.
So my question to you all is this: Do those first day of school nerves ever go away? Do you start off every school year nervous?
