It gets easier. Skype, facetime, email all make things way easier (and harder) than they did many years ago. (Harder cuz now you can see what you are missing and that can hurt.)

just realize most of the time to make what you make in trucking you will work two jobs so your time off will be spent sleeping ....when you get better at this you will be able to take more time off at home than if you were home so just make that time count and remind yourself and her that you are doing this for them....sucks to be home when you can;t better your situation in my opinion....and in time both of you will adjust my wife hated this six years ago now .....after a few days she is like when are you gonna leave you are getting on my nerves

Thanks everyone for the advice I just know I need this to work because the money will definatley help us out. I mean were almost debt free...

Also remember, when you get more experience you can start looking for local work. Heck, start looking now.

Yea I am hoping for local down the road but I understand that this is best for my family but it is also hard. But yea I guess take the good with the bad.

The best is stay focused on the end goal, communicate with your wife and family. Even after years of being deployed for months at a time and traveling the world in the Air Force missing the home and family is the toughest. Communicate as often as possible and keep it positive. For me just hearing their voices and reading the text keep me in a good mood knowing it is only few more weeks/days until we are back together again. Above all make the time you are together the best you can and hang on to those memories while you are away.
