Voldemore the family man

Somebody asked why just before Lilly Potter was killed Voldemore 
yelled "get out of the way" when she tried to protect Harry? Why 
didn't he just blast everyone in sight? Why did he later say that she 
didn't have to die? It's pure speculation on my part but perhaps the 
reason is that even Voldemore would hesitate just a bit before he 
murdered his own daughter. The reason he never said anything about 
this in Goblet Of Fire is that he didn't want his death eaters to 
know that Harry Potter was his grandson, he probably wasn't very 
proud of having a daughter who's a mudblood either. Yes I know, both 
of Lilly's parents are supposed to be muggles, but a line or two 
about a foster father would fix that little difficulty.
