ser·en·dip·i·ty /ˌserənˈdipədē/ "the occurrence and development of events by chance in a happy or beneficial way." Dakota Dixon, daughter of Merle Dixon, and eventual adopted daughter of Daryl Dixon, has never really been close to anyone outside her small family. She was always the smallest and quietest girl in her class at school, and was often made fun of. Dakota never believed that she deserved a happy ending, but things always have a way of working out.
