Plant ID: Came with Blueberry bush

Hello!

I had this little beauty show up with my blueberry I purchased in the spring. I wanted to let it get larger to see what it was before I removed/moved it. I kind of like it, but would like to know what kind of plant it is and if it has any uses (attracting pollenating insects, bird food, wild food, etc) or if it should be pulled up and chucked.

Honestly, the only plants I don't want that are currently taking over our yard are the awful chamberbitter weeds. So if this is a plant I can keep that won't be a problem, that would be nice!

Thanks!

Oooooo! That would be fantastic. Birds and butterflies would be pleased, and so would I!

Any idea how I could ID the specific species, or could it be common elderberry?
