That's just the surface of it but her upbringing so far is very different to that of a Catholic child.
Well, you see, that's because you're not bringing her up as a catholic - that's a parental choice that you made for her, you see what I did there?

Additionally, several of the points you raise regarding sin, holy communion and confession have, I believe, changed somewhat since your, and indeed my, time as a catholic.
