Use the DateTimePicker class for this. It has exactly the behavior you described.

Try to use Control.Show() method and Control.Visible property:

private MonthCalendar _monthCalendar;

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    // invisible on startup
    _monthCalendar.Visible = false;
    _monthCalendar.MaxSelectionCount = 1;
}

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    //show when needed
    _monthCalendar.Show();
}   

private void textBox1_Enter(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    _monthCalendar.Show();
}

private void textBox1_Leave(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (!_monthCalendar.Focused)
        _monthCalendar.Visible = false;
}

private void monthCalendar_DateSelected(object sender, DateRangeEventArgs e)
{
    var monthCalendar = sender as MonthCalendar;
    textBox1.Text = monthCalendar.SelectionStart.ToString();
}

private void monthCalendar_Leave(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    var monthCalendar = sender as MonthCalendar;
    monthCalendar.Visible = false;
}
