About shooting stars!
I want to write about something wonderful today(,) that the world had to offer. (and) I had spent this past week (together) with my daughter. I needed to be almost 48 years old to see this rare event for the first time. (It does not make sense you include your age as a requirement. Try "In all my life or in all my long years-I have never witnessed such a phenomenon or-something so beautiful/exciting) The forecast called for shooting stars. Or they broadcasted on the news that tonight we would see meteor showers :" This will be the night of shooting stars." It was a very warm night, so my daughter and I laid on our sunbeds (sounds better to describe you were laying in sunbeds instead of saying it was hot thst is why we la yes in our sunbeds), which we put on our terrace and watched the sky. We talked about God and the world while we waited for the first one. Well, so when the first appeared, my daughter shouted:" Mummy look, there is one!" But imagine this, I was just rubbing my eye, so I missed it. So we both laughed so much then (my break is over I will finish later :(. But soon after, they appeared one by one. This really was one of the most wonderful moments that we spent together. It was a very special and emotional "mother-daughter-thing" I will never forget it and I guess, or I rather hope she will always remember to it as well.

I want to write about something wonderful today, that the world had to offer and I experienced this last week together with my daughter. I needed to be almost 48 years old to see this rare event for the first time. They forecastedforecast:" This will be the night of shooting stars." It was a very warm night, [I'm not sure that you need this comma] so my daughter and I laid on our sunbeds, which we put on our terrace[I think you need a closing parenthetical comma here] and watched the sky. We talked about God and the world while we waited for the first one. Well, so when the first appeared, my daughter shouted:" Mummy look, there is one!" But imagine this, [I think you need a stronger break than a comma - perhaps an en-dash] I was just rubbing my eye, so I missed it. So we both laughed so much then. But soon after, they appeared one by one. This really was one of the most wonderful moments that we spent together. It was a very special and emotional "mother-daughter-thing" [I would put a full-stop here] I will never forget it and I guess, or I rather hope rather I hope, [again, I would put a closing parenthetical comma here] she will always remember to it as well. it too.
[Very nice story. I hope you don't mind the rather nit-picking punctuation comments.]
