The Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time written by Mark Haddon. He is a British Novelist and Poet and known for this book which was published on 2003.

I wish you were here. To see me how I have become. I don't know what you would think of me but I'd like to think that you are proud. Thanks, mama! For raising us well. I know you're happy in heaven with papa whom we miss dearly as well.
