BBtB - you're her daddy, right? Maybe not in the biological sense, but in every other way you're the man who's raising her and teaching her right from wrong. Personally, I think you put it off as long as you can, but I expect that you're not the one who's going to be able to control the information. If the mother has any sort of visitation rights, it's probably just a matter of time before she spills the beans.
When the time comes, just explain that you're her daddy and always will be. Whether or not you're bioligically related doesn't mean squat if you're emotionally related (if that makes sense).
By the way, the world needs more people like you. My hat's off to you.
