Harry Potter's first birthday

Harry Potter's first birthday took place on July 31, 1981. After Harry received his first and only toy broomstick by Sirius Black, his father James Potter said he was a natural-born Quidditch player.

Later, Lily Potter sent Harry's godfather a thank-you letter, which also described the deaths of the McKinnons and "Wormie's" expression.

In 1997, both Harry and Severus Snape read this letter of Lily's.
