I have a crossover theory/idea that I thought some of you might like..
So, in Darling Lili, we know that Lili had two last names: Smith and Schmidt. Then, in TSOM, the housekeeper is Frau Schmidt. And Frau Schmidt is nice to Maria and taken a liking to her.
What if somehow, Frau Schmidt is Maria's mother? We all know that Maria's parents died when she was younger, but what if they actually had to go into hiding? Lili was a spy, her significant other is Major Larabee. Because of Lili being an ex spy, hiding was most likely necessary. Over the years, Lili worked as a housekeeper for the Von Trapps, Larabee as something else (maybe a gardener?). When Maria arrives, Frau Schmidt thinks she is familiar. After awhile, she figures out that Maria is her daughter.
I know that this theory might seem far-fetched, but it popped into mind while I was reading Darling Lili fics. So, I thought I'd it with you guys. What do you think of it?

I also want to note that there are some details that haven't been thought of yet

Sounds a great idea!
I wrote a fic on Fanfic.net called Gone where Frau Schmidt was Georg's Nursery Nurse when he was a child, before she transferred to Housekeeper duties, and it enabled me to winkle my way well down into their relationship. I'm all for unexpected relationships!

I'm happy that you're all for the unexpected relationship. I'm keeping this idea on the back burner for right now, but if someone thinks they can or wants to write a story on it, feel free to.
