I have been wondering why Iluvatar at first didn't want Aule to create the Dwarves, then let Yavanna create Ents with apparently no objection.
Yavanna's motives were considerably less selfish. Aulë wanted minions, almost, while Yavanna wanted to protect the things that she had already created with the will of Ilúvatar.

I was under the impression that the Ents weren't created or awoken by the Eldar. The Elves only taught them to speak, if I remember correctly.
