How Katie Holmes Balances Work With Motherhood

Katie Holmes seems to be finding the right balance between family life and work. It helps that she can bring 4-year-old Suri to movie sets and that husband Tom Cruise can fly back to see them when he finishes filming.

She tells New York Magazine, "We have quite a schedule, you know? We don’t say, “When I’m working, you don’t work,” or anything like that. Last year he was shooting Knight and Day and I was shooting The Romantics, and we’d just fly to see each other after we wrapped.

"And we homeschool Suri—she has a teacher who is with her every day. We like the one-on-one education. I’m happy that my daughter is strong-willed and determined. You really have to go with what the child is wanting."

As for being in the tabloids constantly, Katie admits it's weird but she goes on with her life.

It’s there, it’s one of those things. My big concern is what does he have going, what do I have going, what are we going to do this weekend. It must seem weird, I guess, having so many people watching. It is weird. I get it. But you just, you know, smile and nod."
