The Moosey Christmas

Hello! It's Christmas Eve, which means it's time for "The Moosey Christmas", a story that I wrote on Christmas Eve (or Christmas Eve Eve--I'm not 100% sure) when I was nine. So, with no further ado, here it is, in all its unedited glory:
    Once apon a time there lived a moose with green and red striped socks on his antlers. He wanted to be a reindeer, and those socks were the best he could do to be Chrismasy. He really wished he could just ask Santa to be a reindeer.   
    Finally, he got his courage and asked Santa for him to hire him as a reindeer. Santa was delighted because he needed a reindeer hired. So, that Chrismas each child got a moose stuffed animal and an illaminated sign that said "Moosey Reindeer was here". Merry Chrismas, Santa.
This was written while we had guests at our house, in a few intense moments of thought. On Christmas day, my uncle typed up my story and helped me to pick out clip art images to make it into a book. I was very surprised to discover that there were clip art images of a moose wearing red and green striped socks. 

Merry Christmas! (I was going to include all the holidays, but I ran out of room. So, happy whatever-holiday-you-celebrate!)
