Default Delayed start

My car takes a few seconds to start after the ignition is turned on. During the few seconds there is no cranking, just silence, then it cranks and engine starts. Is this a sign that the starter is about to die?

Mine cranks, but takes around 6 seconds to actually take. I'm not even sure if that's normal (It's freezing here).
