TKJ:

I like the idea that her family wasn't surprised to have a with in the
family but proud. So, maybe her grandparents were squibs, or somewhere
up the line so there was a knowledge of the wizarding world but no
exact contact. Maybe they watched each generation, hoping the magic
would come back into the family somewhere, and they finally got it in
Lilly and were excited about it. 

My only question is does that still make her a mudblood(man I hate
that word) If there was magic somewhere in the family before but it
was missing for a couple generations? Though how would anyone know all
this? Well besides DD who kept an eye on the family over the years
possibly waiting for the magical generation to pop up.

I do also think that Petunia may have powers that she chooses not to
use. I think she got a letter from Hogwarts too, but turned it down.
That is the only thing to take out of the quote from JKR, The whole
I'm giving a lot away here quote says to me she does have magical
ability of some sort. And yes everyone keeps quoting the Petunia will
never do magic quote. IDK how old this quote is exactly but what's to
say things haven't changed from when that was said. I mean she killed
people in the last book she claimed to not have originally planned to
kill. So, what's saying she can't make Petunia do magic in the same way?

The only thing I do know is I CAN'T wait for my book to arrive in the
mail. Why won't July hurry up and get here!! :-)
