What π means
The ewe is mostly a gentle, cute animal emoji used for sheep, lambs, farms, wool and anything soft and fluffy. One common use is sleep: counting sheep, so π with π€ means you are trying to fall asleep. It also has a teasing secondary meaning. Calling someone a sheep means they follow the crowd without thinking, so π can be a mild insult. In Muslim communities, including in Pakistan, India, Indonesia and Nigeria, it appears in Eid al-Adha (Bakrid) messages because of the sacrifice tradition. In Christian use the lamb can stand for Jesus as the Lamb of God, and it also appears around Easter.

Late at night, π often means you cannot sleep and are counting sheep. It can also simply mean something is soft, fluffy or cute.
