Hi CalifJim,

Does that mean either one is grammatically correct and it is just a matter of personal preference?
Is there one more frequently used than the other?

I've seen:
'May all of your wishes come true this year.'

Would it still be correct if it were:
May all your wishes come true this year.

Thank you.
