Usually, I don’t eat dinner, but today was an exception. This afternoon my parents prepared dinner for my daughter, which consisted of chicken soup, meat balls filled in bitter melon segments, green vegetables, and rice. They put it in several lunch boxes and carried them over to our apartment. However, when my father got here, my daughter had already come home from school and gone to bed, because she was very tired and sleepy then. Thus, we had to put her dinner away and waited for her to wake and get up to eat. However, by 10 p.m., she was still sleeping soundly. So I supposed that she would keep sleeping until tomorrow morning. I didn’t want to waste food, especially I knew my parents put a lot of efforts in it, so I ate it all. Right after I finished dinner, my daughter woke up!

I did a bit more editing than others. Some of the sentences are too long but understandable.

Poor Isabella!

So we put her dinner away and waited for her to wake up and come to eat. However, by 10 p.m., she was still sleeping soundly. So I supposed that she would keep sleeping until tomorrow morning. I didn’t want to waste any food, especially since I knew that my parents had put a lot of effort into preparing it, so I ate it all myself. And then, wouldn't you know it, right after I finished dinner, my daughter woke up!
The only grammar error in your version was "filled in" whereas I think you want "filled with". All the other changes are not grammatically necessary, but they make it a little more idomatic. I hope that is helpful!
