London, Jan 24 : American actor Tom Cruise has nothing but praise for the way his wife Katie Holmes keeps their daughter Suri happy.

Insisting that Holmes has "extraordinary" talent as a mother, Cruise said that the way the actress had taken to motherhood was helping shape the little girl's friendly personality.

"She is such a happy girl and I think Kate is an extraordinary mother and very calm," the Daily Express quoted him as telling GMTV.

Holmes had given birth to Suri in 2006, and she had taken time out from her acting career to bring up her daughter. (ANI)
