“I love you mom! Thank you for everything you are and everything you do,” she captioned a throwback photo in honor of Mother’s Day this year.
Back in 2016, Holmes said she looks to her own mom as a role model for how she wants to raise her 12-year-old daughterSuri Cruise.
“She’s just so kind and has such a pure heart; she really leads with those two qualities, so I try to do the same,” Holmes said of her mom at the opening of the restaurant Avra Madison in New York City.
The star added, “She’s just so kind and very generous, so I try my best to embody that and pass that on to my own daughter.”
