It seems you are starting with a tolerant position, but worry she might prove to be intolerant.
I think if she proves to be unwilling or unable to reciprocate your tolerance, then in the long run, your relationship is not equitable and could only continue at the expense of your conscience.
So you need to find out of she is tolerance, or could be eased into tolerance.
Why don't you start by introducing her to the what made you question the validity of YEC, and see what her attitude towards the fact that people with same judgement and knowledge as her or her church elders may think it is sin, not to disbelieve, but to believe, every word in the bible.
