Google Lens either shows me some kind of Cherry or some kind of Viburnum.
I found it growing near cherry trees where there were other cherry seedlings, but they look alittle different. There is an ornamental weeping cherry blossom as well as a Black Cherry nearby. I'm wondering if they could have hybridized?
The other seedlings i found look more Prunus than this one, but still not like the 2 adults near it. This one looks most differen but something about mostly the bark and growth habit says Prunus to me.
Any thoughts?

Your first pics are of an opposite leaf arrangement shrub. A viburnum, like and Arrowood viburnum is a good guess. It cannot be a prunus as they have alternate leaf arrangement.

Similarly, the next seedling you show is alternate leaf, and cannot be an offspring of the first.
