you know wat... for this blog i initially i put alettertojack...
but then after reading it out for a few times, i feel aletterforjack sounds better haha
Anyway, an English teacher pointed out to me that it's actually the correct one is "TO"
Hah, see? that's why I always tell my students, trust your first answer. Do not change your answer unless you are VERY SURE that the second answer is correct. Arghh, then why did i make the mistake?
Hmmm... coming back home, I quickly do a research online. I Google-d... TO YOU or FOR YOU.
Here're two links that i found useful and i after reading, i am agree that the correct one should be TO YOU.

according to them,
Typically in such a greeting, the addressee follows to and the occasion follows for or on.

Simply:
In the first instance, towards is the connotation that to is meant to take. (It so happens also to be an annotated meaning.)
In the second, for has no connoted sense of directionality but, instead, connotes application or bestowal--hence the change to possessive of "your..."
In one instance "wishes" extend towards the second person; in the second to something possessed or conferred by the second person.

to... is always to use as a transfer / exchange
for... is always to be something beneficial / good for the person
