Something like this?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
        layout="vertical"
        verticalAlign="middle"
        backgroundColor="white">

    <mx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
            private function init():void {
                var theFuture:Date = new Date();
                theFuture.month += 2;
                dateChooser.displayedYear = theFuture.fullYear;
                dateChooser.displayedMonth = theFuture.month;
            }
        ]]>
    </mx:Script>

    <mx:ApplicationControlBar dock="true">
        <mx:Button label="Current date"
                click="dateChooser.selectedDate = new Date();" />
    </mx:ApplicationControlBar>

    <mx:DateChooser id="dateChooser"
            initialize="init();" />

</mx:Application>

How about when the calendar is showing any month other than this month;
then when the showToday is checked the month will redraw the current month, with today highlighted, of course.

Thanks in advance.

Yes.

        DateField {
            todayColor: haloOrange;
            dateChooserStyleName: myCustomDateChooser;
        }

        .myCustomDateChooser {
            todayStyleName: myCustomTodayStyleName;
        }

        .myCustomTodayStyleName {
            color: black;
            fontStyle: italic;
            fontWeight: bold;
        }

Can you leave a demo here? Can I change whatever the color I want?
