Mandy again:
Well that's the question.  I don't know, except speculate that 
Timeturner/Harry somehow helped Lily cast her charm of protection 
that kept Baby/Harry alive.  

Perhaps Lily sees the grown-up Timeturner/Harry while she is running 
for their lives and desperate to protect her son.  She is about to do 
anything to keep him alive. If she sees Timeturner/Harry all grown up 
she my be strengthened by the knowledge that whatever she is going to 
is going to work.  

Lily, knows she has to die to place her protection over her child, 
well what if she was unsure that her spell would work and her dieing 
would leave Harry alone to face Voldemort?  To see a grown up 
Timeturner/Harry may have given her that extra jab of confidence she 
needed to successfully perform the spell.

All speculation of course, but it is fun.

Mandy
