Steph here:  
Does anyone think it's strange that Rowling uses the phrase "more 
than meets the eye" in regards to Petunia?  Lily's eyes are 
constantly mentioned, it's Lily's family that helps protect Harry, 
and I don't really know where I'm going with this, but that comment 
doesn't really sit right with me.
Any thoughts??
