Need ID for two plants growing wild

I'm trying to determine if these are "ok" weeds or "bad" weeds. So far most of my weeds have been exotic invasives (garlic mustard, Japanese Knotweed, etc).

These two spread readily, but don't seem invasive (they don't grow into the nearby lawn, for example). They currently grow in part shade in fairly decent soil that had the benefit of natural leaf mulch, untouched, for a few decades.

Both plants are about 8 inches high or so now. They don't seem to flower, though I seem to recall the first one getting a pink flower on it one year.

The second one is actually quite attractive and if it's not invasive, I might keep it around.
