Justin Bieber has paid special treatment to an important woman in his life.

No, not Selena Gomez. And, no, despite what you may have read more recently, not Kendall Jenner.

We refer, instead, to Pattie Mallette, Bieber’s mother, who gave birth to the superstar in her teens, who raised him as a single mother and who has stood by her son through the last difficult year of his life.

“This little 4’9 woman may not look like a mom but she is, and she’s the best at it!” wrote Bieber on Instagram of his mom.

“This woman taught me everything I know, how to love how to be compassionate how to be strong when the only thing u wanna be is weak how to stand when all you want to do is fall.”

As he’s done multiple times over the past several weeks, Bieber goes on to admit that he’s often acted like a moron over the past year or so.

But Mallette has kept him as grounded and sane as possible.

"If it wasn’t for this woman lets just say I would have had a way LONGER stupid phase. I love u and thank u for not giving up on me," Justin concluded.

Pretty darn sweet, huh?

Why do we doubt Justin will pen a similar message to Jeremy Bieber on Father’s Day, considering dad got high and abusive with his son last February in a private airplane?
