I believe the term is Squib.  And I think the reason that her parents were
proud was that it was a distinction or something special, much like
Hermione's parents are proud of her.  Secondly, as is being talked about in
another thread, Lily would not be considered a "mudblood" were her parents
not muggles.

 

Stacey (who's ever so thankful to her husband for returning from his
European business trip with 4 of the six books in French!  If only I didn't
have so much Grad School homework, I'd dive into them right away!!)
