This book came about as the result of a little motivational phrase I came up with to continually encourage my granddaughter, Mia. I wanted her to always do the best she could in everything she did, so on August 11th, I grabbed a sheet of notebook paper, and as carefully, as I could, I wrote the words, “Mia, Be Your Best You” – Papa. My intent was to get a frame, which I did, and put the frame on her desk, where she would constantly be reminded of this sentiment. 

A few weeks passed, and as I looked at the paper getting ready to actually make the final “frame-ready” draft, a thought came to me. “Why not share this sentiment and message with EVERYONE?” So that’s what I did!!
