Can you identify this tree

I live in Southwest Missouri and this tree just practically grew overnight (20 feet in five years ;-) in my flower garden. It's not too close to the house so I'm leaving it there as it provides nice shade for our deck. Wondering if anyone can help me identify it by it's leaf?
Thanks, Sharon
