Default Plant id please

I sowed a load of seeds in this bed a month or 2 ago but being a bit of an amateur, I didn't label them and didn't keep the packets. I think that one of the packets was a mixture of seeds too.

Consequently, I don't know what's weed and whats not at the moment due to my poor identification skills.

Hopefully one of you clever folk will recognise this and tell me whether I can haul it up or leave it be. I have noticed it in a few other spots in the garden where I haven't sowed seeds so I'm somewhat suspicious its an imposter.

Look forward to the replies,

It's a weed. One of the spurges.

I'd make it petty spurge (Euphorbia peplus).

It's a wild Euphorbia and spreads like crazy. Pretty though.
