In Chapter 17 Harry looks in the Mirror of Erised and sees his family for the first time. He sees his mother and father smiling down at him.
Mirror of Erised was a magical mirror, which, according to Albus Dumbledore, shows the "deepest, most desperate desire of our hearts." The name "Erised" is "desire" spelled backwards, as if reflected in a mirror. In the mirror, Harry encounters the Potter family and it is this that is 'nothing more or less than the deepest desire' of young Harry's heart.
