What is man that You take thought of him,David is awed by how great God is, and how much He towers over everything in creation. In fact, compared to Him, mankind is nothing at all. Yet God gives us attention, and is interested in our doings and well being. He doesn't want us to suffer, or make mistakes. And David is wondering why this is.
And the son of man that You care for him?
The answer, of course, is that God created mankind in the image of Himself. He put qualities of Himself into us, and that makes us interesting to Him. We have the capability to understand Him in ways that nothing else can, and to react to what He has done. He cares for us because He made us most like Him of everything in all of His creation.
