Yes, I think that motif may have played itself out. The big build up turned  
out to be just that Slughorn was reminded of Lily by Harry's eyes and decided 
to  give him the memory.  I still harbour a hope that only Harry can read  
Snape's potion notes because they were spelled for Lilly only to read. (Not sure  
who first suggested it, but it wasn't me).  There is also the possibility  
that Snape will remember Lily by looking at Harrry's eyes too at some crucial  
point in book 7, so be prepared.
