Emojis are kind of my favorite. There's nothing quite as satisfying as finding that perfect situational emoji while texting a friend and, as a parent, they have the added bonus of giving me a way to reply to people in shorthand. A picture is truly worth a thousand words, which is great news considering that I don't always have a ton of time to send lengthy texts in between cutting the crusts off of PB&J sandwiches and dealing with tantrums.
Because of my unabashed love of emojis, I decided to create some super-relevant emoji shorthand especially for those of us who are parents, because sometimes only an emoji will do.
