From what I'm seeing on these forums windowsill growing seems to lead to a lot of stem stretching, I don't know if the light doesn't pass through the glass well or what, but in my short time here I've already seen about a dozen instances of windowsill growing resulting in stretching in the seedlings.
You may want to consider just getting like a desk lamp with a decent cfl in it to get the plant started before putting it on sunlight.
That's just my take given the trends I've been seeing around here though.
