Closeness

In the Genesis account of creation I was wondering this morning as I read it why God waited to create Adam on the second half of the sixth day. Wouldn't it have been interesting for Adam to watch God create everything, to see God at work. If God had created him first that would have been the case.
I have been studying the Father heart of God lately and I think as I read Genesis this morning I began to come up with an idea. Could it be that God kept Adam till the second half of the sixth day because the next day, day seven, He was taking off. God didn't want His son Adam to experience an absent Father. Also when He created Adam from the dust, Adam would have been lifeless because it then says God breathed into his nostrils His, God's very own breath. Imagine that for a second, how close one has to be to do that and what must have Adams eyes saw the moment they recieved life. Could it be his eyes met God's instantly as he recieved breath. Wow thats close, how man has got away from that closeness. We must get back!
