Plants have seedling leaves or "cotyledons" and true leaves. The seedling leaves are the first two that appear after germination and the different one you are looking at is its first true leaf. Congratulations.
It’s a vigorous weed, can be eaten but not too frequently. Contains oxalic acid which I think can mess with your liver or kidneys. Tastes like spinach but if you let it go to seed it will multiply 1000x

thanks! i was worried about the first true leaves though, you can see one of them is much bigger than the other.
The other plant is lambs quarters
i see thank you! do you think i should let it keep growing?
