Default White Smoke at Start

Got another question for you guys, whats it mean when you have white smoke when I start my truck, if I go about 3 or 4 days without starting it on a cold day and i go out and start it, it will blow out white smoke and then the glow plug light will come off and one a few times and then everythings fine, and the whole rest of the day it will start just fine, any ideas
