How do you snap a block to the center of the mouse

How do I snap a block to the center of the mouse? Right now my part keeps being snapped to the edge pivot of the mouse.hit.position?

This is the module script that controls snapping:

1. local SnapGrid = {}

2. function SnapGrid.Snap(Part, SizeX, SizeY, SizeZ, YOffset)
3. 	
4. 	local X = Part.Position.X
5. 	local Y = Part.Position.Y
6. 	local Z = Part.Position.Z
7. 	
8. 	Part.Position = Vector3.new(math.floor(X/SizeX)*SizeX,math.floor(Y/SizeY)*SizeY+YOffset,math.floor(Z/SizeZ)*SizeZ)
9. 	print("SimpleSnapGrid - Snapped " .. Part.Name .. " to grid position: " .. tostring(Part.Position))
10. 	
11. end

12. return SnapGrid

Here is the other script:

1. local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
2. local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()
3. local SnapGrid = require(game.ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("SimpleSnapGrid"))

4. local Hologram = game.ReplicatedStorage.Hologram:Clone()
5. Hologram.Parent = game.Workspace

6. Mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
7. 	
8. 	game.ReplicatedStorage.PlaceBlock:FireServer(Mouse.Hit)
9. 	
10. end)

11. Mouse.Move:Connect(function()
12. 	
13. 	local GridSize = 4
14. 	
15. 	Hologram.Position = Mouse.Hit.Position
16. 	SnapGrid.Snap(Hologram, GridSize, GridSize, GridSize, 2)
17. 	
18. end)
19. Mouse.Idle:Connect(function()
20. 	
21. 	local GridSize = 4
22. 	
23. 	Hologram.Position = Mouse.Hit.Position
24. 	SnapGrid.Snap(Hologram, GridSize, GridSize, GridSize, 2)
25. 	
26. end)

How do you make it centered to the mouse.hit.position?

Thank you for reading this.
