Is my wife a kleptomaniac? Need Help/Advice/Answer

I have been married to my new wife a little over a year now.Am very worried that my wife may be a kleptomaniac. Things/money seem to come up missing around her. The latest being my Granmother's checkbook. Either Granny is lying, which I don't believe or my wife took it, which is becoming more of a possibility. Everytime we have a fight concerning the kids(I have 2 girls from a previous marriage, she has 1 and we have a boy together) things come up missing. My girls have had 3 cell phones come up missing, my oldest with which my wife has had the most trouble has had a trumpet and guitar come up missing. My wife was also accused of taking money out of a client's home. My sister's wedding rings came up missing after we visited last year. $1000 came up missing at her mom's house last year. It seems like things just keep pointing in her direction. How do I address this? Love my wife dearly, don't want to lose her.
